I Took A Long Hard Look

歌詞

I took a long hard look At the heroes of my youth. And their antics on the page there on Can no longer sustain me Ever since I was a boy They brought me joy But the shackles of the way I was Can no longer contain me It was exciting And enlightening Reverberating through my dreams Goodbye to reality And set a course for wayward schemes. Now I can't sing I can't feel I don't know what is real. I was travelling through the past for years Tell me what's my destination Now the past is gone I don't even have a song We've not sung before To a closing door Tell me what's my situation? I saw the film, I lived the book I got the haircut That's all it took But now I know it's going to take A little more now I'm awake I took along hard look Now I'm waiting for the phone to ring I glance at the inbox Is there any tantalising mail there in There was lust in my restless heart But now I know what true love means Goodbye to reality And set sail for dreams
