Hard Way

I guess you're off to have your fun
Another ending just begun
And i know what i don't see
Really shouldn't bother me
So go and have yourself a ball
You'll be at no one's beck and call
And with that fire in your eyes
Another lover's moon will rise
And someone else will take the fall
And that's just the way you are, i've known all along
Some candles always burn even when the night is gone
But the strongest of flames won't burn eternally
When you find another friend who'll light your candle up again
You can burn one down for me
So you don't matter anymore
I'll convince myself, i'm sure
As if i give a damn
That's just the way i am
So go on and pour yourself some wine
With who'll ever spend your time
'cause anyone can see you won't be crying over me
And you never were that kind
Chorus

No sun on the rockies, not even the light of day
I feel that old cabin fever coming on
But i know where i'll be when lady luck finally blows my way
She'll put the wind in my sails and i'll be gone
It won't be long before my ship comes in
Gonna sail right out of colorado
Catch a ride on a warm trade wind to puerta no-one-knows
She'll find me waiting when my ship comes in
Gonna board and go whichever way the wind blows
I'll be off to find myself once again in puerta no-one-knows
When my ship comes in
Maybe i'm only dreaming but it sure seems real
Somehow the wind doesn't chill quite to the bone
Or could it just be the fever i'm running on an uneven keel
Not losing sight of why i'm up here alone
Chorus
It won't be long before my ship comes in
She'll find me waiting when my ship comes in
It won't be long before my ship comes in
She'll find me waiting when my ship comes in
When my ship comes in
