Song and Emotion

I see a man most every day

A lonely man and his guitar, ooh yeah

Within his eyes, I see the pain

All the faces and the places

All the trouble that he'd seen, ooh yeah

There was a time, there was a day

They'd come from miles around

And they all knew his name

But days gone by are gone

Now only memories remain

Then he starts to play

Suddenly, the pain slowly fades away

Tattered, torn and frayed

There's a place within his heart he'll always save

For song and emotion

Know he's got 'til his dyin' day

Song and emotion

While you can hear him play

While you listen, you can still hear him say

"Better run for cover

'Cause it looks like rain again"

And now his life is but a shadow of his dreams

The calm is over, been stormin' for years

He turns, he leans his shoulder to the wind

Lost again

All along on his way to the top

Somehow, somewhere, somethin' was lost

But all he knew his only friend, and that was

Song and emotion

Know he's got 'til his dyin' day

Song and emotion

Where are they now? Where are those people

Who promised him his dream?

Where are they now? Poor man's lonely

Preacher on the streets

Broken, humbled by the cold reality

Life at the top ain't always what it seems

Now better run for cover

'Cause it looks like rain again

You best be careful

Of what you dream

You best be careful now

Of what you dream

Again

Oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah

Whoo!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah

Song and emotion

Song and emotion

Song and emotion to his dying day

Song and emotion
