i see him there most ev'ry day
a lonely man and his guitar. in his eyes
i see the pain
all the faces and the places
all the trouble that he'd seen. there was a time
there was a day
they'd come from miles around. they all knew his name. but day's gone by are gone
now only memories remain. then he starts to play. suddenly the pain slowly fades away. tattered
torn and frayed
there's a place within his heart
he'll always save for the song and emotion. know he's got to his dyin' day. song and emotion. you can hear him play. you can still hear him say
better run for cover 'cause it looks like rain again!
and now his life is but a shadow of his dreams. the calm is over
been stormin' for years. he turns and leans his shoulder to the wind. lost again!
all along
on his way to the top
somehow
somewhere
something was lost. through it all he knew his only friend was
song and emotion. know he's got to his dyin' day. song and emotion. where are they now
where are those people who promised him his dreams?
where are they now for this lonely creature on the streets?
broken
humbled by the cold reality. life at the top ain't always what it seems. oh
better run for cover
'cause it looks like rain again. you best be careful of what you dream
of what you dream!
song and emotion. song and emotion. song and emotion. song and emotion.
