These Days Lyrics - These Days - Bon Jovi

I was walking around, just a face in the crowd 

Trying to keep myself out of the rain 

Saw a vagabond king wear a Styrofoam crown 

Wondered if I might end up the same 

There's a man out on the corner 

Singing old songs about change 

Everybody's got their cross to bear, these days 

She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams 

To a motel room on the boulevard 

I guess she's trying to be James Dean 

She's seen all the disciples and all the wanna be's 

No one wants to be themselves these days 

Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

These days the stars seem out of reach 

These days there ain't a ladder on the streets 

Oh no, no, no 

These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age 

There ain't nobody left but us these days 

Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly 

From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes 

His momma said he was crazy, he said "Momma, I've got to try 

Don't you know that all my heroes died 

And I guess, I'd rather die than fa-fa-fade away, yeah" 

These days the stars ain't out of reach, yeah 

But these days there ain't a ladder on the streets 

Oh no, no, no 

These days are fast, love don't lasts in this graceless age 

Even innocence has caught the midnight train 

And there ain't nobody left but us these days 

I know Rome's still burning 

Though the times have changed 

This world kept turning round and round and round and round 

These days 

(Solo) 

These days the stars seem out of reach, yeah 

But these days there ain't a ladder on these streets 

Oh no, no, no 

These days are fast, love don't lasts in this graceless age 

Even innocence has caught the midnight train 

These days the stars ain't out of reach, yeah 

But these days there ain't a ladder on these streets 

Oh no, no, no 

These days are fast, nothing lasts 

There ain't no time to waste 

There ain't nobody left to take the blame 

Oh no, no, no 

There ain't nobody left but us these days
