I got my plans
|
From trembling hands
|
I knew just what to do
|
Follow each step carefully
|
And hope they pulled me through
|
My father ran
|
To different lands
|
And not a word we spoke
|
But I was here
|
To conquer fear
|
And bring some glory home
|
|
There’s a world of hate and sorrow
|
Out there standing in your way
|
There’s a load of compromise
|
Before you die
|
And each time you step forward you get burned a little bit
|
No longer know the way
|
To say goodbye
|
Now I’m down here underneath
|
Your bedroom light
|
Rena please come out
|
With me tonight
|
|
I look in through
|
The window
|
And I though I’d take
|
My chance
|
I taught myself to play
|
So I could be where people danced
|
No higher call
|
Than stars that fall
|
I waited patiently
|
A thousand miles of pavement
|
That became my destiny
|
|
You can wait a lonely lifetime
|
Wondering when it’s gonna come
|
You can while away the hours
|
Getting stoned
|
But one day you get lucky
|
And you look in someone’s eyes
|
That tell you you don’t
|
Have to be alone
|
Now I’m falling back
|
Just out of your sight
|
Rena please come out
|
With me tonight
|
|
Oh now I know the way things go
|
And what I put you through
|
Cause when they try to get to me
|
They get to me through you
|
|
I know it’s not the kind of hurt
|
That’s easily set right
|
And I know you got your reasons
|
To stay inside
|
But nothing ever happens
|
When it’s left out on it’s own
|
You locked in there with
|
Just your wounded pride
|
I’m down here and I’m
|
Way too tired to fight
|
Rena please come out
|
With me tonight
|
Rena please come out
|
With me tonight
|
|
