I got my plans from trembling hands
 I knew just what to do
 Follow each step carefully
 And hope they pulled me through
 My father ran to different lands
 And not a word we spoke
 But I was here to conquer fear
 And bring some glory home
 
 There's a world of hate and sorrow
 Out there standing in your way
 There's a load of compromise before you die
 And each time you step forward you get burned a little bit
 No longer know the way to say goodbye
 Now I'm down here underneath your bedroom light
 Rena please come out with me tonight
 
 I look in through the window
 And I though I'd take my chance
 I taught myself to play
 So I could be where people danced
 No higher call than stars that fall
 I waited patiently
 A thousand miles of pavement
 That became my destiny
 
 You can wait a lonely lifetime
 Wondering when it's gonna come
 You can while away the hours getting stoned
 But one day you get lucky
 And you look in someone's eyes
 That tell you you don't have to be alone
 Now I'm falling back
 Just out of your sight
 Rena please come out with me tonight
 
 Oh now I know the way things go
 And what I put you through
 Cause when they try to get to me
 They get to me through you
 
 I know it's not the kind of hurt
 That's easily set right
 And I know you got your reasons to stay inside
 But nothing ever happens
 When it's left out on it's own
 You locked in there with just your wounded pride
 I'm down here and I'm way too tired to fight
 Rena please come out with me tonight
 
 Rena please come out with me tonight
