Neil Young - Times Fades Away Lyrics

Fourteen junkies too weak to work
One sells diamonds for what they're worth
Down on pain street, disappointment lurks
Son, don't be home too late
Try to get back by eight
Son, don't wait till the break of day
'Cause you know how time fades away
Time fades away
You know how time fades away

All day presidents look out windows
All night sentries watch the moonglow
All are waiting till the time is right
Son, don't be home too late
Try to get back by eight
Son, don't wait till the break of day
'Cause you know how time fades away
Time fades away
You know how time fades away

Back in Canada I spent my days
Riding subways through a haze
I was handcuffed, I was born and raised
Son, don't be home too late
Try to get back by eight
Son, don't wait till the break of day
'Cause you know how time fades away
Time fades away
You know how time fades away
You know how time fades away
You know how time fades away

Thirteen junkies too weak to work
One sells diamonds for what they're worth
Down on pain street disappointment lurks
Son, don't be home too late
Try to get back by eight, eight
Son, don't wait till the break of day
'Cause you know how time fades away
Time fades away
You know how time fades away

Time fades away
You know how time
Time fades away
You know how time fades away
You know how time fades away
Time fades away
You know how time fades away
You know how time fades away (son, son, son)
Son, don't wait till the break of day
'Cause you know how time fades away
