it`s midnight
and I don`t have a slightest clue
where I`m at or where I`ve been
but, at least I know what time it is
it`s time to get outta here
wherever I may be
whenever I`m tired
I seem to feel awake
even if I`m pure as a glazier spring
I feel as dirty as a muddy old river
you wanna be like me
I don`t think so
get outta my way
moody
if I`m in the mood
travelling
if I find myself on an airplane
and amorous as a honey bee
if I don`t get stung
as far as spelling
the ultimate four letter word
mine`s more often spelled starting with an `h`
and ending with a double `l`
come on, now
give me a heavenly break
give me
what it takes
to shine on through
to you
and the world
I`m so lonely
can`t you tell
come on, now
give me a heavenly break
give me
what it takes
to shine on through
mornings after
I can still smell the smoke
and see the first flame
through the ember of it all
come on, now
give me a heavenly break
give me
what it takes
to shine on through
to you
and the world
I`m so lonely
can`t you tell
come on, now
give me a heavenly break
give me
what it takes
to shine on through
