Mott the Hoople - The Journey lyrics
Your rating:
(Ian Hunter) All the changes they will take their time In the morning dust they'll begin to rise Halfway to a borderline Well I can see the end For the very first time Well I know I lost just a little bit on the journey When my mind's been split by little things that didn't fit on the way Oh I know I lost just a little bit on the journey 'Cos I'm trying so hard to get going There's a man on a bridge called suicide And he hides his head while the coast is dark And the river drags and the water sways Oh his rags've seen better days And I guess he lost just a little bit on the journey For his mind was split by little things that didn't fit on the way (Oh) Yes I know he lost just a little bit on the journey For every gift he had to give For every life (yeah) he had to live Well they meant nothing without her to guide him on his way Well he told her he was a leader Of a well respected [load] But when he tried to leave her Well she looked right down her nose Many times he tried to make her believe in herself But she wouldn't listen to a word he said Well he followed her though the darkness All the chances I take He followed her though the wilderness Her mystery to break Many times he tried to make her believe in herself But she wouldn't listen to a word he said So for 40 days and for 40 nights Well they tied my [ways] they can see the light And the angel screamed in my nightmare ride And the changes left (yeah) but they will take their time And I guess I lost just a little bit on the journey Yes I know I lost just a little bit on the way I know I lost just a little bit on the journey Oh I know I lost just a little bit on the journey Yes I guess I lost just a little bit on the way Yes I know I lost just a little bit on the journey (Everybody's got a journey)
