Song Lyrics
ANOTHER LIFE * BETTER ON MY OWN * LAVENDER BLUE * RAG DOLL * WHEN YOU GO QUIET * ARIZONA GIRL
SUNRISE ON AVE C * MY OLD NEIGHBORHOOD TIMING IS EVERYTHING * I CAN'T SETTLE * ONCE THERE WAS A BOY * YOU AND GENE
ANOTHER LIFE
MY FUTURE'S UNCERTAIN
MY BACK STARTS HURTING
AS SOON AS I GET OUT OF BED
I LISTEN TO THE NEWS STATION
TROUBLE IN THE WHOLE NATION
AIRPLANE PASSES BY
GOTTA BE A MILE HIGH
REMINDS ME THAT I'M NOT A BIRD
THERE'S A SIDE OF ME
ONE PART PRISONER AND ONE PART FREE THERE'S ONLY
SO MUCH ANY MAN CAN BE WE ALL WANT ANOTHER LIFE
ANOTHER FIFTY YEARS
TO SEE THE OUTBACK AND THE HIMALAYAS FEEL THAT ARCTIC
WIND AROUND YOUR EARS WE ALL WANT ANOTHER LIFE
PICKING UP MY PAYCHECK
HOW AM I GOING TO MAKE IT
HOW AM I EVER GETTING OUT OF THIS HOLE STUCK IN A TIME FRAME
CAUGHT UP IN THE MUNDANE
I WANNA LEARN DANCING
MOTORBIKE RIDING
MAYBE HAVE A KID OR TWO
(CHORUS)
I WANNA TRY ACTING
WHITE WATER RAFTING
BE A TOTAL FAILURE
BACKPACKING IN AUSTRALIA
LEARN TO PLAY THE SITAR
GET BETTER ON THE GUITAR
TRY SOME ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES
THERE'S A SIDE OF ME
ONE PART PRISONER AND ONE PART FREE
THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH ANY MAN CAN BE
WE ALL WANT ANOTHER LIFE
THERE'S SO MUCH TO KNOW
SO MANY PLACES THAT YOU WANT TO GO
WE HARDLY HAVE TO TIME TO STOP AND SAY HELLO
WE ALL WANT ANOTHER LIFE
TO SAIL THE BALTIC SEA
RIDE AN ELEPHANT TO TIMBUK THREE
WALK THIS LAND FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA
WE ALL WANT ANOTHER LIFE
BETTER ON MY OWN
I WASHED UP SOME PLATES
CLEANED OUT THE FRIDGE
DUSTED SOME SHELVES
LOOK WHAT I DID
EMPTIED THE BIN
TIDIED A DRAWER
HUNG UP MY COAT
AND I WENT TO THE STORE
BETTER ON MY OWN
BETTER ON MY OWN
I TELL MYSELF AS I'M WALKING HOME
BETTER ON MY OWN
BETTER ON MY OWN
I DONT KNOW HOW TO STOP OR HOW TO CARRY ON
I SAT ON MY BED
THINKING IT THROUGH
WHEN THE ANSWER ARRIVED
IT JUST DIDN'T RING TRUE
I'M NOT MYSELF
BUT I NEVER WAS
I CAN'T FIND THE KEYS
TO OPEN MY DOORS
BETTER ON MY OWN
BETTER ON MY OWN
I TELL MYSELF AS I'M WALKING HOME
BETTER ON MY OWN
BETTER ON MY OWN
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO STOP OR HOW TO CARRY ON
THE GIRL IN THE WHEELCHAIR
SHE'S DRESSED UP TO KILL
IF THAT DON'T IMPRESS YOU
THEN NOTHING WILL
HER HAIR DONE ALL PRETTY
SHE'S SO FULL OF PRIDE
I STARE AT THE PAVEMENT
AND I CHOKE UP INSIDE
I DID WHAT I DID
I HID WHAT I HID
WE AINT GOT NO PAPERS AND WE AINT GOT NO KIDS
I'M AS SAD AS A BRICK
THAT AIN'T GOT A WALL
THE LONELY OLD TIMER
SEEN AND DONE IT ALL
BETTER ON MY OWN
BETTER ON MY OWN
I TELL MYSELF AS I'M WALKING HOME
BETTER ON MY OWN
BETTER ON MY OWN
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO STOP OR HOW TO CARRY ON
LAVENDER BLUE
SUN COME UP ON OUR SLEEPY TOWN
YOU’RE IN THE GARDEN IN YOUR DRESSING GOWN LAVENDER BLUE
SUNBEAMS DANCE IN YOUR LONG GREY HAIR
I GET ALL SENTIMENTAL WHEN I SEE YOU THERE
IN LAVENDER BLUE
YOU’RE FEEDING THE BIRDS AND THE HEDGEHOGS TOO
IF YOU GO AWAY WHAT THEY GONNA DO ?
A BAG OF OLD PEGS WHERE THE WASHING DRIES
A BANGED UP SHED AND SOME OLD MINCE PIES
YOU'RE BAKING A CAKE OR A PIE FOR TEA
YOU’RE ASLEEP READING A BOOK AND I’M WATCHING TV
RAG DOLL
I’VE GOT TO FIND MY SMILE AGAIN
TOOK OFF RUNNING WHEN MY WORLD CAVED IN
TOOK ALL MY BONAMIE
ALL THAT’S LEFT IS HERE TO SEE
I GOTTA FIND MY SMILE AGAIN
I’VE GOT TO FIND MY SOUL AGAIN
ALL THAT MADE ME WHOLE AGAIN
ALL THAT MONEY CAN NOT BUY
A SIMPLE NATURAL HIGH
I GOTTA FIND MY SOUL AGAIN
DRAGGED FROM PILLAR TO POST
NEVER EVEN COMING CLOSE
RAG DOLL, FEELING LIKE A RAG DOLL
GETTING PUSHED AND PULLED AROUND
RAG DOLL, FEELING LIKE A RAG DOLL, FEELING LIKE A RAG DOLL
GETTING PUSHED AND PULLED AROUND
YOU MAY THINK I’M SPINNING WHEELS
BUT YOU DON’T KNOW HOW LOSING FEELS
I CAN BARELY LEAVE MY ROOM
AND SLEEP CAN’T COME TOO SOON
I’VE GOTTA FIND MY WAY AGAIN
I’M TRYING TO GET BACK SOME CONTROL
I’M TRYING TO BUY BACK WHAT I SOLD
RAG DOLL,
I HEAR THE CALL OF THE WILD
BUT I’M TRAPPED HERE LIKE A CHILD
GETTING PUSHED AND PULLED, SHAKEN AND THROWN,
TOSSED AND DRAGGED AROUND
LIKE A RAG DOLL
LIKE A RAG DOLL
