I think about a day I left him at the rehearsal station west of St. Tuft We were seventeen, but it was sweet and it was true Still I did what I had to do Cause I just knew Some of those saturday nights We'd sink into our seats right out of time, and all the lights A technical woman of the music and machine It's called me to be on the screen I live beside you, see Without a nickname to my name Hop hop hop, here I came To be brave or just insane We'll have to see It's me being in a sleepy town He'll sit one day the lights are down He'll see my face and think of how he used to know me I'm on these hills, I'm reaching for the highs And chasing all the lights that shine And when they let you down It's another day of the song I hear them every day The rhythms in the canyons that'll never fade away Ballads in the barrows left by those who came before They say you gotta want it more So I bang on every door And even when the answer's no And when my money's running low The dust in my canyon glow Halloween Eve Someday as I sing my song The small town kid'll come along That'll pay the things to push him on and on I'm on these hills, I'm reaching for the highs And chasing all the lights that shine And when they let you down You'll get up off the ground The morning rolls around It's another day of the song And when they let you down The morning rolls around It's another day of the song It's another day of the song It's another day of the song It's another day of the song It's another day of the song
