If they could see you right now And know where you came from, lonely one Don't cry now, now you're really someone That put lines on your face, that's out of place
You really got what you wanted You really got where you wanted to be
You can't live this way forever Like an island made of sand 'Cause your heart gets worn away We all need to be together Though we find it hard to say Every woman, every man
You walk a crooked road You can't look back and see how short your memory There you go, only fooling yourself Someone's going to get hurt, you won't be the first
You'll have to take it on your own When you wake up to find that everything's gone
