Well I'd been on the road for 28 days With the boys from the rock and roll band And we pulled into town for the very last time For what they used to call a one night stand There were laughing girls with all kinds of people And sunbathers out on the grass And I was slumped in my seat like a stone with a view Of the movies they made on the glass
And it's on to the hotel and the meaningless lobby faces There's a phone on your wall and no-one you can think of to call You catch up on the day 'till the man comes to say 'It's time to go down to the hall'
We went into the back and down to the room With just 35 minutes to go And the promoter came in with a smile on his face And wished us good luck with the show You can ask yourself all kinds of questions You can lose a lot of sleep at nights But in the end you've got to accept what you are Without thinking of wrongs and rights
And it's up on to the stage and the adrenaline starts to flow It's a strange sort of role but it's food for your body and soul And you're never quite so alone as when You're facing into those lights
When I went in slow and I came out fast With the crowd ringing in my ears But it just goes to show that whatever you see A man's heart is never quite how it appears Well I've heard people say it's all just a game We play for money or glory But just then I would have traded it all to be home With the girl who waits for me
And there's a dressing-room scene and a party to say farewell It's the end of the line Of an essay in logic and in time For life's just a scene Where we move in between The boundaries of heaven and hell |
