I need something wonderful
To get me through the night
A smile so sinister came to me
And said, boy, you should be living in the sky
Now I'm walking on my own again
Keeping my own time
No, I don't wanna talk about it
But I swear that I'm just fine
You rolled and then you stoned me
Shook my blues away
Told an unfamiliar story
And cast a spell that I can't break
You're always a part of me
If I switch back
Oh, to my old ways
I don't forget
Hold my shaking hands
If I get derailed and head for a wreck
I promise I'll rest when you get me home
God damn, time slips by me
I blink and the season's change
Oh, sweet, sweet delusion
It's the best part of spring
Now autumn leaves are falling
These lamps glow a purple haze
I thought I'd see you right here
But then again, I've known one too many things
You're always a part of me
If I switch back
Oh, to my old ways
I don't forget
Hold my shaking hands
If I get derailed and head for a wreck
I promise I'll rest when you get me home
You're always a part of me
If I switch back
Oh, to my old ways
I don't forget
Hold my shaking hands
If I get derailed and head for a wreck
I promise I'll rest when you get me home
