We live in hope of love and wait to die And sadness all around us makes for crying The feelings that once meant so much Left to dry and turn to dust and ashes
We learn to wheel and deal and say goodbye Madness all around us makes for dyin' And young deceivers soon turn old Are left to die amongst their gold and cashes

We drive a million miles to see the sun And hoping we are not too late for saving The Lord will smile on you today And give you love that you can trade For matches and TVs and movie stars And driving cars is catching
