River City Extension - Friends And Family lyrics

Some times I wonder where I'd be If all my friends abandoned me On a vessel out to sea Took every lifeboat and they ran It's funny how we'd switch our roles With empty cabins empty hulls And all the food filled up with mold I'd stand on deck without a hand Feeling so much bigger than I am And so I dim the lights, and I crack a beer I think to myself about the things I said I'd do this year Growing old takes its toll until you're losing Track of all the things you won't have back again Five minutes pa** and I get scared I take the ladder, than the stairs Trying hard to get some air Inside these lungs that I neglect I grip the wheel and try to turn I never looked, I never learned Just playing captain to my kind To think it never crossed my mind Please forgive me, I want to go home Wake me up now, I'm so tired of being lonely Strips of moonlight in the clouds are breaking through I'll be dreaming, baby I'll be dreaming of you After a night without a mate I hung my head and loved my fate Counted the hairs upon my face I never thought I'd have the time But when the day came to an end I missed my family and my friends All driven out by my control If everyone do what they're told I wouldn't be so bold, I wouldn't act so old Hey honey, I wouldn't stay so cold And so I dim the lights and I crack a beer I think to myself about the things I'll probably do next year Growing old never takes its toll until you're losing Track of all the things you won't have back again And there's so many of them Then one morning I awoke Inside a clearing in the smoke My fist like quarters, scratching wax off of my eyes I hit the door then I hit the roof I bit my tongue, I broke a tooth I saw a landing to the left of the sunrise And I cried: please forgive me, I want to go home Wake me up now, Oh, I'm so tired of being lonely (That's right) Strips of moonlight in the clouds are breaking through I'll be dreaming, baby I'll be dreaming of I'll be dreaming, baby I'll be dreaming, yeah I'll be dreaming, baby I'll be dreaming of you
