I've been trying for so long. And this trying just goes on. As I keep trying to hold on. To my heart. To my heart. . I've been waiting here for you. And the waiting still ain't through.
If deep in the night (if deep in the night). You hear a voice calling. Lost and alone (lost and alone). Barely able to speak. . With each weary step (with each weary step).
Truckin' - got my chips cashed in. Keep Truckin' - like the doodah man. Together - more or less in line. Just keep truckin' on. . Arrows of neon and flashing marquees out on Main Street.
Trains and boats and planes. Are passing by,. Could mean a trip. To Paris or Rome. For someone else. But not for me. The trains and boats and planes. Took you away, away from me.
Together again. My tears have stopped falling. The long lonely nights. Are now at an end. . The key to my heart. You hold in your hand. And nothing else matters.
They say you stand by your man. Tell me something I don't understand. You said you love me oh, and that's a fact. And then you left me, said you felt trapped.
Chorus:. I'm so tired, tired of waiting. Tired of waiting for you. I'm so tired, tired of waiting. Tired of waiting for you. . I was a lonely soul. I had nobody 'til I met you.
The nighttime gets longer each morning I wake up. With sunlight that's long overdue. I start making plans for having thoughts that might take up. Some of the time that I'll spend missing you.
Well, I'll give you three good reasons for leavin'. Number one is that I've forgotten number two. Number three is in a place that's been kept hidden. For so long I can't remember but its true.
Chorus:. I'll still see you walking, silently. Through the shadows in my mind. A vision of your sweet blue eyes. Creeps into my dreamful sleep at night.
Making my way downtown. Walking fast. Faces passed. And I'm home bound. . Staring blankly ahead. Just making my way. Making my way. Through the crowd.
This time. Is the last time. That'll I'll ever call her name, yeah. This time. Is the last time. That'll I'll ever play her game. And this time. Is the last time.
This much I know. She'll never come back to me. This much I know. She meant what she said. This much I know. It's taught me all about misery. I just learn kinda slow.
They say this drinkin' will kill me. I don't know, oh Lord, it might be true. If I stop I'll just die from your leavin'. So either way that I go, it's 'cause of you.
Think of me when you're lonely. Think of me when you're blue. Think of me when you're far away. And I? ll be thinkin? of you. . Remember all of the good times.
I used to think love was. The soft rope meant to tie me down. And all that could ever own me. Was a guitar and another town. Ten years can disappear real fast.
You say you will love me. If I have to go. You'll be thinking of me. Somehow I will know. . Someday when I'm lonely. Wishing you weren't so far away. Then I will remember.
These arms. That hang here by my side.. These arms. That ache to open wide.. Useless arms. With nothing left to do. Since these arms. Stopped holding you..
She said, baby things change. i said, but i feel the same. she said, well let me explain. baby, how things can change. I said, but that doesn't show. how a love that could grow.
Inside the pocket of a clown. Is a sad place to hang around. Just watching smiles turn into frowns. Inside the pocket of a clown. . Inside the heartache of a fool.
