Gonna leave the pain behind
Gonna leave the fools in line
Gonna take the magic potion
Gettin' in an old black car
Gonna take a ride so far
To the land of sun tan lotion
Gonna take it state by state
Til I hit the golden gate
Get my feet wet in the ocean
I'm still living in the dream we had,
For me it's not over...
Walkin on the bridge on day
Lookin out across the bay
I saw a rippling in the water
Once a big ship had passed
I borrowed a traveller's glass
And focused on the ocean's daughter
Kind of like a wave confused
Dancing in the sunset hews
She waved to me and called me over
I'm still living in the dream we had,
For me it's not over...
Talkin' bout a friend of mine
Talkin' bout a gold mine
Richest vein in any mountain
Talkin' bout the enemy
Inside of me
Talkin' bout that youthful fountain
Talkin' bout you and me
Talkin' bout eternity
Talkin' bout the big time
I'm still living in the dream we had,
. . .

I built a house of cards
Built a house of rain
Built a house of love
It's hard to build again
Built a road to reason
Built a road to fate
Built a road to the promised land
Right up to the gate
Loose change in my pocket
Future in my hand
Too many distractions
For me to understand
Too many distractions
Got to get back home
Get into something solid
Get out of the zone
Some roads bring renewal
Some roads hide and wait
Some roads promise everything
And steal your fuel away
Loose change in my pocket
Future in my hand
Too many distractions
For me to understand
Some roads I been flyin'
Some roads I crashed
Some roads I been sleepin' on
Some roads I got back
Some roads I been runnin'
Some roads I was stopped
Some roads I been walkin down

She lives in the TV sky
She lives in such pain
She rides in a bulletproof
Stretch limousine
The smoke in the barroom nights
The faces in the window
The sound of the harbor horn
She recognized
And when the music started
She just slipped away
Just like a river rollin' down
And when the music started
She just slipped away
High on a windy hill
The turbine did whine
Low in the valley chill
A baby was cryin'
Impossible to take the time
The moment is here
Cry out from behind the pines
A voice comin' near
And when the music started
She just slipped away
Just like a river rollin' down
And when the music started
. . .

We're changing highways
In heavy traffic
See the lights turn
To something graphic
With my suitcase and my brew
I come in your room
Hello hello
Is that you stranger
Is this our music
Up in you manger?
And is this your exit too?
. . .

I'm a little bit high
I'm a little bit low
Hear you name wherever I go
I'm a little bit wrong
I'm a little bit right
Hear your name all day and night
When the music calls
I'll be there
No more sadness
No more cares
Let's think about living
Let's think about life
Like a comet painted on the sky
Like an old soul
Over darkness you'll fly
I'm a little bit here
I'm a little bit there
I'm a little scattered everywhere
I'm a little bit up
I'm a little bit down
I hear your name all over this town
. . .

I'm not asleep when I'm lyin' down
I'm asleep when I' walkin' around
This town
This town
Some people think that it's not OK
To sleep around and kiss the hours away
This town
. . .

Have you ever been lost
Have you ever been found out
Have you ever felt all alone
At the end of the day
Yeah I'm talkin' bout gettin' down
Take it easy - there's no one around
Just a mirror and you and me
And the TV sky
I was walkin down main street
Not the sidewalk but main street
Dodgin' traffic with flyin' feet
That's how good I felt
Took a spin in the laundromat
Played a game in the music arcade
Kept winnin' while the band played
That's how good I felt
(chorus)
Have you ever been singled out
By a hungry man
You're listening to the radio
He's washin' your window
When you look in those vacant eyes
How does it harmonize
With the things that you do?
That's how good I felt
(chorus)
There's a comet in the sky tonight
Makes me feel like I'm alright
I'm movin' prety fast
For my size
I really didn' mean to stay
As long as I have
. . .

You got me running, got me hiding
You got me running, hiding, hiding, running
Anywhere you want me, let it roll, yeah, yeah, yeah
You got me doing what you want me now
Baby what you want me to do?
Going up, going down, going up, down, down, up,
Anyway you want me let it roll, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you got me doing what you want me
Baby what you want me to do?
You got me running, got me hiding
You got me run, hide, hide, run
Anywhere you want me, let it roll, yeah, yeah, yeah
You got me doing what you want me now

Children are laughing in the sun
I count the voices one by one
But I'm not there to share the fun
I'm out on the interstate
I can hear a soft voice calling
Calling me to bring my guitar home.
I'm happy singing in a crowd
The lights are bright, the music's loud
I like to look in every face
But out on the interstate
I can hear a soft voice calling
Calling me to bring my guitar home.
Out in the dusty desert wind
The fox goes looking for a friend
She sees a light around the bend
I'm out on the interstate
I can hear a soft voice calling
. . .
