(ian hunter) You're just a stranger in the past Just another mug that could never last You came up slow but you burned out fast (didn't ya) It ain't silver needles on the run No it ain't silver needles on the run It ain't silver needles on the run Shh you make me feel so bad You thought you was the only one that got messed up Me 'n all the others never had it so rough Well how come you're dead and i'm still stood up Well it ain't silver needles on the run Silver needles on the run No it ain't silver needles on the run Oh i remember.... All your plans were made on some pr floor 'n all your bags were packed, they never reached the door.
Out ordering (?) your thought exchange All your brains were acting strange You never lied in dreams before There must be more to life than getting sore (what do you think?) I seen in some music paper that you was gone And i went right out and wrote you a farewell song Boy, they had you dead before you was born And it's a shame - you were such a great mover But it ain't silver needles on the run No it ain't silver needles on the run Silver needles on the run Silver needles on the run Silver needles on the run Silver needles on the run (next)
