I recall when they would say. No one lives for just one day. Don't save dreams that can't be sold. Don't chase rainbows, just their gold. Tried in their way, tried it mine.
I don't know why you moan and pout. All the world lies at your feet. Like a child you sit and wonder, who's to blame for your defeat. I have tried to give you comfort.
I want somebody to share. Share the rest of my life. Share my innermost thoughts. Know my intimate details. Some one who will stand by. my side. And give me support.
Though I can't show you the years of my life. That I spend on the road to freedom. Don't let it throw you, I know of your strife. I know what it's like to roam.

Dry your eyes, come sit close to me. Lay your head on my aching chest. And let me try to console and comfort you. It's my fault, I can do no less. . All night long we've been talkin' 'bout.
You see that endless line? They're victims of our time. Whose only crime was to bank on their fathers dreams. To work hard all your life, to raise your family with your wife.
Take all you got to give_ and let it shine._. Take all you got to give_but leave me mine._. Nobody likes you the way that I could.. For you , I'd dive to the bottom,.
Though I can't show you the years of my life. That I spend on the road to freedom. Don't let it throw you, I know of your strife. I know what it's like to roam.
Two o'clock early in the mornin'. I'm feeling down and blue. I can tell another night will go. Without dreams and without you. . I call you up, just to hear you say.
