A girl I once knew

I see you hiding underneath the sheets now,
My dream of you just goes on, and on, and on.
I’ve been looking and I’m on my way down,
To a hell that just goes on, and on, and on, and on.

And it’s a long way down the road.
And it’s a long way down the road.
And it’s a long way down the road.

I see you walking down the city streets,
Everywhere I go.
I give you money and help you out
When I can.
No one loves you, but they really love you.
You live your life, and it goes on, and on,
And on, and on.

And it’s a long way down the road.
And it’s a long way down the road.
And it’s a long way down the road.

Down the road… Down the road…
Down the road… Down the road.

Well your older now, and things have changed
A bit since then.
All your habits have pushed away all your friends.
And all your money now I know there is nothing
Left.
You live your life and it goes on, and on, and on, and on.

And it’s a long way down the road.
And it’s a long way down the road.
And it’s a long way down the road.
