lyrics

Every day it’s just the same again
Draw the blinds, let the sunlight in
Feeling ‘bout as lonesome as a boy could be
Since you walked out on me
Defeated by demons almost every night
My best laid plans couldn’t set it right
And I couldn’t melt your heart with one hundred degrees
Ooh-ee
Spending my time in random rooms
Walking down random halls
Tryin’ to find some peace of mind
But I don’t find nothin’ at all
I search the grounds of random towns
For some reason to stay
I take a good look around
And then I’m on my way
That old blue bird he’s on the ledge again
Haven’t you heard he’s my only friend?
He just don’t want me to set him free
And every morning he’s waiting there for me
The hand it strikes half past killing time
And you’ve let me know that you’ve had enough of mine
That loneliness will take you by degrees
Ooh-ee
Spending my time in random rooms
Walking down random halls
Tryin’ to find some peace of mind
But I don’t find nothin’ at all
I search the grounds of random towns
For some reason to stay
I take a good look around
And then I’m on my way
