Old friend
I've seen the burdens of these times
And all the things you'd dreamt of being
Weigh you down
No, friend
It doesn't seem like life is working out
The way you'd dreamt
And when you look around
The promises of better days
Don't heal the way they should
What's the use in going on
When life ain't all that good?
And he said
What do I need with love
When I can't understand the love
That's standing in my face?
And what do I need with dreams
When I can't even find the answers
To the ones that kept me
Running right in place?
Oh, friend
I've been to places of the heart
And know that I could never
Live a second life
But, friend
I've known a couple different truths
That kept my life from slipping
Further in decline
The promises of better days
Don't heal the way they should
But what's the use in
Giving up
When life can be so good?
And he said
What do I need with love
When I can't understand the love
That's standing in my face?
And what do I need with dreams
When I can't even find the answers
To the ones that kept me
Running right in place?
What do I need with love
When I can't understand the love
That's standing in my face?
And what do I need with dreams
When I can't even find the answers
To the ones that kept me
Running right in place?
What do I need with love
When I can't understand the love
That's standing in my face?
And what do I need with dreams
When I can't even find the answers
To the ones that kept me
Running right in place?
