Well now he's back in the atmosphere One without a permanent scar and did you miss me while you were Looking for yourself out there Did you finally get the chance to dance Along in the light of day yeah Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken

I'll live to love another day Lord I fell for her smile And she loved me for a while Then she said good-bye gotta go Left me standing on the side of the road Now she's gone and I'm a memory in her past And the long and short of it some things never last

You say you love me, darling Please, call me on the phone sometime One of these days Sound like a long-distance call When I hear your voice Ease my worried mind I'm gonna show you how nice a man can be I'm gonna show you just how nice a man can be I'm

In a mellow tone Feeling fancy free And I'm not alone I've got company Everything's OK The live long day With this mellow song I can't go wrong That's the way to live

Of this life And everybody hurts sometimes Hold on, hold on Everybody hurts Don't throw your hand When your day is long And the night The night is yours alone When you're sure you've had enough

You've been wandering for days How you felt me slip your mind Leave behind your wanting ways Cause you were all I ever longed for I want to look you in the eye And I will hold you in Wide eyed, with a heart-ling full of fright Your eyes follow like

Did you read about the flood? Happened long time ago In Tupelo, Mississippi There were thousands of lives It rained, it rained Both night and day The poor people was worried Didn't have no place to go

In case you didn't know That I could live this life without you Even though I don't tell you all the time You had my heart a long, long time ago I can't count the times I almost said what's on my mind Just the other day I wrote down all the things I'd say

Today is the first day of the rest of our lives Tomorrow is too late to pretend Everything's all right I'm not getting any younger as long as you don't get any older I'm not going to state that yesterday never was Bloodshot deadbeat and lack of sleep

Up all night long And there's something very wrong And I know it must be late Been gone since yesterday I'm not like you guys I'm not like you Hey mom, there's something in the backroom Hope it's not the creatures from above You used to read me stories
