Your Reply Lyrics - Southside Johnny And The Asbury Jukes

I walk through a world ridden with confliction 

I know everybody can't be right 

All I ever get is contradiction 

Still they can't prove that I'm here tonight 

Where's the time gone, and where's it going to? 

They all try to prophesize 

What is there in common to a billion people? 

What exists when they totalize? 

I know you might never hear these questions 

From such a little speck of life 

Surely you understand why I take my lonely stand 

Waiting, waiting on your reply 

Must we look to a future in the chill of space? 

Or maybe we will just revert 

Are we slaves to a power that is so sublime? 

Or is it hidden in this clump of dirt? 

But if you listen something echoes down through the ages 

Once they even tired to chain down time 

There must be a reason for the wealth of miracles 

That run through the days of mankind 

I know you might never hear these questions 

From such a little speck of life 

Surely you understand why I take my lonely stand 

Waiting, waiting on your reply
