|
I got my plans from trembling hands |
|
I knew just what to do |
|
Follow each step carefully |
|
And hope they pulled me through |
|
My father ran to different lands |
|
And not a word we spoke |
|
But I was here to conquer fear |
|
And bring some glory home |
|
|
|
There's a world of hate and sorrow |
|
Out there standing in your way |
|
There's a load of compromise before you die |
|
And each time you step forward you get burned a little bit |
|
No longer know the way to say goodbye |
|
Now I'm down here underneath your bedroom light |
|
Rena please come out with me tonight |
|
|
|
I look in through the window |
|
And I though I'd take my chance |
|
I taught myself to play |
|
So I could be where people danced |
|
No higher call than stars that fall |
|
I waited patiently |
|
A thousand miles of pavement |
|
That became my destiny |
|
|
|
You can wait a lonely lifetime |
|
Wondering when it's gonna come |
|
You can while away the hours getting stoned |
|
But one day you get lucky |
|
And you look in someone's eyes |
|
That tell you you don't have to be alone |
|
Now I'm falling back |
|
Just out of your sight |
|
Rena please come out with me tonight |
|
|
|
Oh now I know the way things go |
|
And what I put you through |
|
Cause when they try to get to me |
|
They get to me through you |
|
|
|
I know it's not the kind of hurt |
|
That's easily set right |
|
And I know you got your reasons to stay inside |
|
But nothing ever happens |
|
When it's left out on it's own |
|
You locked in there with just your wounded pride |
|
I'm down here and I'm way too tired to fight |
|
Rena please come out with me tonight |
|
|
|
Rena please come out with me tonight |
