Living In Oz Lyrics - Rick Springfield

Ever since I was a kid 

I remember having dreams of grandeur 

I was gonna be someone, I know what I want 

Everybody played second best 

And I held you back just like all the rest 

I think I got what I want 

Everybody's got to fight their demons 

And you know I had to fight mine, too 

It took a lot out of me, it took a lot out of you 

To be Living In Oz, Living In Oz 

Sometimes the dream can wake you 

Living In Oz, Living In Oz 

Sometimes the dream can shock you, too

All the money that I spend on you 

Doesn't mean a thing if the love's not true 

Baby please, I'll get what you want 

Can't you tell me you and me ain't lost 

I know what I did, I know what it cost 

Now I'm yours and I've got what you want 

All the fightin' will have been for nothin' 

If at the end I can't have you 

I'll throw it all away if that's what you want me to do 

Living In Oz, Living In Oz 

Sometimes the dream can wake you 

Living In Oz, Living In Oz 

Sometimes the dream can shake you, too 

Funny how desire can burn you up inside 

And make you commit emotional suicide 

Everybody's got the desire to leave their mark 

Some just do it over a trail of broken hearts
