Lyrics: |
Goodbye four leaf clovers Hello, gone awry Don't cry, the fight ain't over Unless you let it pass you by (Chorus) I'm looking for a song to sing, yeah I'm looking for a friend to borrow I'm looking for my radio So I might find a heart to follow I've never been just longin' for your lovin I've never been just wearin' down to nothing I've never been just lookin' for a reason So, that maybe you'll be thinkin' of me You'll be thinkin' of me And all that I have found in reason Is reason just to not believe When all that you are left, is treason Is treason just to let it be (Chorus) These blue-yonder dreams And second hand shoes You're so far gone that you live to to lose And, it's too late to go home all alone You're the tar in that old cigar And the worn out cable on the cable car And you're too tired to admit you've got to choose (Chorus) Don't walk onto this glassy surface Expecting to find more than me For what am I without purpose But a lone mirage to see? (Chorus) |
