Seger was singing words I could believe in |
|
And "Main Street" was my street that night, |
|
So I called up Samantha and asked her the |
|
Chance of us running out 'neath the moonlight. |
|
|
|
|
|
Well, she's not with me now, |
|
She can always be found when I rewind the radio dial. |
|
And like it was then I feel her on my skin |
|
And I'm back there for awhile. So... |
|
|
|
|
|
I labor for hours 'cause I know the power |
|
Of a song when when a song hits you right; |
|
Pouring my soul into stories of life, |
|
Hopin' someone'll hear one tonight. |
|
Maybe my voice will cut through the noise |
|
And stir up an old memory, |
|
And out of these piano keys |
|
Comes the sound, the sound of a million dreams |
|
|
|
|
|
My 18th summer, I was a cocky up-n-comer, |
|
Cranking up "Born to Run." |
|
Turned left out the drive |
|
With the pistons open wide, |
|
And I came back a Prodigal Son. |
|
My spirit was broken, she threw the door open, |
|
"I love you" not, "I told you so." |
|
When I hear "Mama Tried," I still break down |
|
And cry and pull to the side of the road. |
|
|
|
|
|
I labor for hours 'cause I know the power |
|
Of a song when when a song hits you right; |
|
Pouring my soul into stories of life, |
|
Hopin' someone'll hear one tonight. |
|
Maybe my voice will cut through the noise |
|
And stir up an old memory, |
|
And out of these piano keys |
|
Comes the sound, the sound of a million dreams |
|
|
|
|
|
I labor for hours 'cause I know the power |
|
Of a song when when a song hits you right; |
|
Pouring my soul into stories of life, |
|
Hopin' someone'll hear one tonight. |
|
Maybe my voice will cut through the noise |
|
And stir up an old memory, |
|
And out of these piano keys |
|
Comes the sound, the sound of a million dreams |
|
the sound of a million dreams |
