On a cold night in a hotel in new orleans |
|
Came the final blow |
|
And somehow somewhere we lost sight |
|
In our search for that pot of gold |
|
And all that happened i don't understand |
|
Could somebody here, somebody please explain to me |
|
Cause i'm feeling so damn deceived |
|
And i can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately |
|
Theatre of my soul....play on child |
|
Ashes to ashes...light the good lord lays us down |
|
Dust to dust, oh, no |
|
The time has come to lay to rest the years |
|
All the years it took this heart to trust |
|
Maybe too much too soon, i couldn't get my head on straight |
|
All that worry, just wasted time |
|
And now it's much too late to save it |
|
Long forgotten midnight dancer |
|
Plays her final role |
|
The curtain falls and i'm still standing |
|
Theatre of my soul you left in vain |
|
Could someone please explain, and i said |
|
Solo |
|
I know that nothing's the same |
|
Riding blind on the winds of change |
|
But in my head that scene just keeps on playing |
|
Long forgotten midnight dancer |
|
Plays her final role, oh, yes she does |
|
Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately |
|
The curtain falls and i'm still standing |
|
In the theatre of my soul |
|
Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately |
|
When time it just keeps on passing, |
|
I got to let it go, let it roll, let it roll, let it roll |
|
Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately |
|
I keep searching for those long lost answers |
|
In the theatre of my soul |
|
Theatre of my soul |
