how to start this thing-another number made by man
made on earth
to lead us through the dark again
but i've made it this far
by thruway, guidelines and dying cars
and all along the way
its raining down on my parade.
its so cold when-
its so cold when you're all alone
its so cold when-
when you carry the weight alone
its so easy-
when they take it from your hands
but the gods laugh
when you tell them all your plans.
i wish i could say
i've left those days long behind
but what can i say?
i'm livin by the secret way
like anyone-
who walks the earth beneath the sun
you find your own way
in every moment borne away-
well get in the moment
and pay later on
well i'm payin' now
for a dream dead and gone.
