Sometimes I get a little lost.
And the good life is so hard to see.
Sometimes all I can see is the cost
When the prize standing right in front of me.

And it ain't easy to get along
When you've got things going wrong
And there is no luck to be found besides.
Spend my natural prime, thinking money and time,
Wondering where they go and they go.

That's when I need you to put me in line.
Come tell me something, any words are fine.
Fill up these four walls with old melodies.
Let me know if the big light is shining on me.

Some nights when the wind is blowing soft,
It’s been so long since a dream filled my head,
There’s a beauty in every streetlight and every moth,
But all I want to do is lay down in bed.

And it's along road to travel down
When nothing good seems to stay around
And I'm a solitary man with my pride
At the end of my mind, talking unkind
Feeling in the dark, in the dark.

That's when I need you to put me in line.
Come tell me something. Any words are fine.
Fill up these four walls with old melodies
And let me know if the big light is shining on me.

That's when I need some time spent with you.
Come tell me something. Any words will do.
Fill up these four walls with old melodies
And let me know if the big light is shining on me.
