Would've never found you. He had wanted to stay. Oh, he hurt me bad. In a real good way. . Well he opened my eyes. To a world beyond. That impossible dream.
Through the back window of a '59 wagon. I watched my best friend Jamie slippin' further away. I kept on waving 'till I couldn't see her. And through my tears, I asked again why we couldn't stay.

When it comes to lovin'. Has it always let you down?. Every time you've fallen in. Did someone else fall out?. . I know about that. That's the only kind of love I ever had.
There are walls made of paper, an' walls made of stone. An' some, better made, out of livin' alone. I built a wall that no-one could break down. Locked up my heart where it couldn't be found.
High on love. And I ain't comin' down. No, I ain't comin' down. Don't you know I'm high on love. Since you've come around. And I ain't comin' down. . Took a long time for me to believe.
Don't do it darlin'. Don't you dare look in there. You said you didn't want to see me. But you've been lookin' for me everywhere. . And you know that you're gonna find me.
Just because I ask a friend about him. Just because I spoke his name somewhere. Just because I rang his number by mistake today. He thinks I still care.
Raindrops on the treetops. Waiting there to fall. I know how they're feeling. But I'm only, yes I'm only, halfway down. . Fighting with the devil. Harder all the time.
I've seen rock bottom. And I've sailed to the top. Now I'm somewhere in between. Believe that it's over. . But sometimes still blue. There's no place so lonely.
Who keeps on trusting you. When you been cheating?. Spending your nights on the town. . Who keeps on saying. That she still wants you?. When you're through runnin' around.
Maybe in time it'll get easier. When there's been enough time between us. Right now it seems so hard. To face that we're apart and to believe one day.
If you have friends in Gloryland. Who left because of pain. Thank God up there they'll die no more. They'll suffer not again. . So weep not friends I'm going home.
There's a sweet dream on your pillow. There's a sad song in your eyes. There's a sunshine behind a dark cloud. Up above you in fools thin air. . She's an old friend, she's a good friend.
Sometimes I get so angry with you. You treat me like an old worn out shoe. I've been here for you, for oh, so long. . One day you could reach and find me gone.
I leave you with something you can't understand. You can't buy or sell it or hold it in your hands. It's greater than this world of ours or the heavens above.
Being without you, baby, is drivin' me crazy. But the way we were was drivin' me insane. The cure for a love-sick ill don't come in a little pill. I could use a shot of good time in my veins.
There are whispers, I could whisper. Things to bring us close together. And so I've got everything but the words. . There are stories in these glances.
I wonder should I tell you. About all the crazy things. I've ever done. I've been a rebel all my life. And when I should have stayed. I tried to run. I was searching for an answer.
I hope that I won't be that wrong anymore. And maybe I've learned this time. I hope that I find what I'm reaching for. The way that it is in my mind. .
