The Remains of Rock & Roll

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's too long to wait around for everyone to decide I'm off to the promise land if anyone needs a ride It's a small car but we'll fit inside if we leave our bags behind We'll entertain ourselves just watching the world go by [Pre-Chorus] Is something wrong? You don't look like you're having fun The road is long Gotta let go of the things you've done [Chorus] We prefer good love to gold And the remains of the rock and roll When the moment's right In the middle of the night We can almost see the way to go [Verse 2] So long to everyone, 'cause they don't know who we are Tell them you're sorry, but you'll have to break their hearts Sister, you're old enough to take the wheel and drive Your hands, your heart, your eyes, have made me realize [Pre-Chorus] I hear your call All of my senses are turned on We're on a roll Suddenly Earth is far below [Chorus] We prefer good love to gold And the remains of the rock and roll When the moment's right In the middle of the night We can almost see the way to go [Outro] Can't you see me floating? Forwards, backwards Won't you lend a hand and help me out? Hear me on your doorstep? Knocking, knocking Won't you open up and help me out?
