sometimes i'll be there

i know of this place i go some summer nights

it takes me up and down those shocking lights

rocks me to bed it doesn't know that i am awake

lady with a bowl of rice - a man turning off the lights

sometimes i'll be there

sometimes i won't

sometimes i'll see you there

sometimes i won't

and i don't

'cause it's my house

it's my day

it's my place

so go away

but you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

mysteries of the past in one final blow

the future is the one that you know must go

it's a table of conscience in a room filled with tears

a cued-up sense of life - drained from all these years

sometimes i'll be there

sometimes i won't

sometimes i'll see you there

sometimes i won't

and i don't

'cause it's my house

it's my day

it's my place

so go away

but you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

you can stay

sometimes i'll be there

sometimes i'll be there

sometimes i'll be there

ooooh ooooooh

you can stay

ooooh ooooooh

you can stay
