hots on for nowhere

i was burned in the heat of the moment
no, it could've been the heat of the day
when i learned how my time had been wasted
dear fellows, i turned away
now i've got friends who will give me their shoulder
when i should happen to fall
time and his bride growing older
i've got friends who will give me some all

la, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
la, la, la, la, la, na, na, baby
la, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
la, la, la, la, la, la

corner of bleeker and nowhere
in the land of not quite day
a shiver runs down my backbone
the face in the mirror turns grey
so, i looked 'round for a hitch from a reindeer
said you oughta find him out in the day
i turned 'round to look for the snowman
to my surprise he'd melted away, yeah

la, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
la, la, la, la, la, na, na, baby
la, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
la, la, la, la, la, la

the moon and the stars out of order
as the tide tends to ebb and sway
the sun in my soul's sinking lower
while the hope in my hands turns to clay
i don't ask that my feet fall on clover
i don't roam at opportunity's door
why don't you ask my advice, take it slower
then your story'd be your finest reward

la, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
la, la, la, la, la, na, na, baby
la, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
la, la, la, la, la, la

oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

(gitar solosu)

lost on the path to attainment
search in the eyes of the wise
when i bled from the heart of the matter
i started bleeding without a disguise
now everything's finally happened
now and then you've got to take time to pause
when you're down on the ground, don't be messin' around
you can land in a boat without oars

la, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
la, la, la, la, la, na, na, baby
la, la, la, la, la, la, yeah
la, la, la, la, la, la

hey babe, hey babe
hey babe, i lost my way
hey babe, hey babe
i really, really did now
hey babe, hey babe
i don't know where i'm gonna find it
hey babe, hey babe
do you wanna know
do you really, really, wanna help me, yeah

let me tell you now, babe
let me tell you
that it feels so good that it must be right
c'mon babe
let me tell you
that it feels so good that it must be right
c'mon babe
let me tell you
if it feels, if it feels, if it feels
if it feels so good, so good, so good
oh, yeah
