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 here please explain to me |
|
Because I'm dealin' 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 to 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 |
|
And the theatre of my should you left in vain |
|
Could someone please explain |
|
And I said |
|
I know that nothing's the same |
|
Riding blind on the winds of change |
|
But in my head that scene 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 |
|
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 |
