blue moon ghetto, "shine all the time"
there was a string of pearls
and i gave them to the sky
and i honestly, honestly tried
to play the games that you designed.
emotional swings leave us left
leave us left with only desire
and we swing around alive
and it's only alive
if love stays alive.
oh, you know you're not really alive
you're just a shadow falling behind
oh, no matter how much you try
you can't make the sun shine all the time
and i turned away
oh, you started to say
what a dream, what a dream, a dream it could be
and i shifted my eyes
oh, and i tried to be kind
when there's no one, and there's no hope
and there's nothing new, there's nothing new to believe.
**** (bridge)
so where, where are you now?
where are you now?
we are wondering wondering how
how to fall down on your knees
and finally admit all the things you believe
and oh you know you're not really alive
you're just a shadow falling behind
you know no matter how much you try, try, try, try
you can't make the sunshine all the time
and i turn away
oh, you started to say, what a dream, what a dream, a dream it could be
and i shifted my eyes
oh, and i tried to be kind
when there's no one, and there's no hope
and there's nothing left, nothing left to believe.
