And as I go my way alone
I find it hard for me to carry on.
I need your strength
I need your tender touch
I need the love, my dear
I miss so much.
My world is empty without you, baby.
My world is empty without you, baby.
In sixty-nine I was twenty-one and I called the road my own
I don’t know when that road turned into the road I’m on
Running on, running on empty
Running on, running blind
Running on, running into the sun
But I’m running behind
I’m late, I’m late
For a very important date
No time to say hello goodbye
I’m late I’m late I’m late
Always late
Yes, it’s always the same
Procrastination is my middle name
But the rest of the world is ahead of the game
And that’s why I’m always late.
Before the parade passes by
Before it goes on, and only I’m left
Before the parade passes by
I’ve gotta get in step while there’s still time left
I’m ready to move out in front
Life without life has no reason or rhyme left
With the rest of them
With the best of them
I wanna hold my head up high
I need got a goal again
I need got a drive again
I wanna feel my heart coming alive again
Before the parade passes by …
If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by
These boots are made for walking,
And that’s just what they’ll do.
One of these days these boots
Are gonna walk all over you.
Kicked in the teeth again
Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win
Kicked in the teeth again
Ain’t this misery ever gonna end?
I’m walking in the rain
To end this misery
I’m walking in the rain
To celebrate this misery
The weather man
Says “clear today”
He doesn’t know
You’ve gone away.
And it’s raining
Raining in my heart.
Oh misery - misery,
What’s gonna become of me?
Gloom, despair, and agony on me
Deep, dark depression, excessive misery
If it weren’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all
Gloom, despair, and agony on me
My bank went broke and my well ran dry.
It was almost enough to contemplate suicide.
I turned on the gas, but I soon realized
I hadn’t settled my bill so they cut off my supply.
Turn it on
Turn it on, turn it on again
Turn it on
Turn it on, turn it on again
(Turn around)
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified
And then I see the look in your eyes
(Turn Around, bright eyes)
Every now and then I fall apart
(Turn Around, bright eyes)
Every now and then
I fall apart
Turn around, turn around
There’s a thing there that can be found
Turn around, turn around
It’s a human skull on the ground
Human skull on the ground
Turn around
I got a brand new chimney baby put on top
And it’s a made out of human skulls
Come on take a little walk with me sugar
And tell me who do you love?
I don’t know how to love him.
What to do, how to move him.
I’ve been changed, yes really changed.
In these past few days, when I’ve seen myself,
I seem like someone else.
Well, my mind is goin’ through them changes
I feel just like committin’ a crime
Every time you see me goin’ somewhere
I know I’m goin’ outta my mind, yeah
The sun comes up - I think about you
The coffee cup - I think about you
I want you so, it’s like I’m losing my mind
The morning ends - I think about you
I talk to friends and think about you
And do they know it’s like I’m losing my mind?
I think about you
Honey all the time my heart says yes
I think about you
Deep inside I love you best
I think about you
You know you’re the one I want
I think about you
Darling you’re the only one…
