You were under the impression That when you were walking forward You'd end up further onward But things ain't quite that simple
You got altered information You were told to not take chances You missed out on new dances Now you're losing all your dimples
My jacket's gonna be cut and slim and checked Maybe a touch of seersucker, with an open neck I ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neat Wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet
Love Reign O'er Me Love Reign O'er Me Love...
I've had enough of living I've had enough of dying I've had enough of smiling I've had enough of crying I've taken all the high roads I've squandered and I've saved I've had enough of childhood I've had enough of graves
Get a job and fight to keep it Strike out to reach a mountain Be so nice on the outside But inside keep ambition
Don't cry because you hunt them Hurt them first they'll love you There's a millionaire above you And you're under his suspicion
My jacket's gonna be cut and slim and checked Maybe a touch of seersucker, with an open neck I ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neat Wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet
Love Reign O'er Me Love Reign O'er Me Love...
I've had enough of dance halls I've had enough of pills I've had enough of street fights I've seen my share of kills I'm finished with the fashions And acting like I'm tough I'm bored with hate and passion I've had enough of trying to love
