There's Th

I have traveled the line,
Held many hands on short holidays,
Made a lot of noise
In the strangest places far away.

Only for a day or two at a time,
I've been moving with the wind
On my side,
That puts me free and easy in my hometown.

I said i'd stay alive
I guess i didn't tell a lie.
I told you i'd come back again
And i'll say the same again next time.

I've been living for a day at a time
Movin' with the wind on my side.

You don't know how good it feels
I know i'll never want to go away.
You don't know how good it feels
To be with you again -
I know i'm comin' home to stay.

I'm sayin', it's nice to be back home
Among my friends.
It means a lot to me
And your love
It never ends.

There's a light that shines on persephone,
Always a fire in her eyes,
And the last time that i went to her
I could tell things weren't right.

I just don't care to see your years go wasting,
There's no longer magic in your eyes.

In your time, you could outshine everybody else around,
But your off-stage ways might be a bore -
You take a bow, you take a fall.


I came to be here in the footlights,
To live with you through every song,
And your face displays a peaceful field.
I can't believe the curtain has to fall.

Now i know your years were never wasted,
Tonight i saw the magic in your eyes.

You walk out your front door
And say that you found love -
That's how the best things start,
That's for sure.
You ought to know that ain't around anymore.

That's where you're at,
I'm at, baby,
'cause that just doesn't pay.
Now steal your stolen car - ride it on.

Oh, you seem to think it's cool
That they stay out all night -
I only want to know where you've been,
So let's get back today.

So go down, child,
To a rock'n'roll show, alright,
You seem to think it's cool
To stay out all night.
