I Should let you know
That if you can't keep up
You'll be laughed at like a joke
And not those lights
From the other side
They're not so bright

Though, I still feel young
My body is old
It's almost done
My heart of gold
Has been bought and sold
My story's told

My name in lights
On the city marquee
Feels like a dream now
That I remember well

I tried
Until I got it
There were nights
I barely survived
And I left
The way I wanted
'Til I lost it
Like thought I might

I've been
All I'll be
Everyone has gone away
I've lost all company
I just think back
Back to when
Oh, you should've seen me then

I had a house down in Miami
Feels like a dream now
That I remember well

I tried
Until I got it
There were nights
I barely survived
And I left
The way I wanted
'Til I lost it
Like thought I might

I tried
Until I got it
There were nights
I barely survived
And I left
The way I wanted

And I lost it
