Theatre of the Soul

Lyrics

[Verse 1] On a cold night, in a hotel in New Orleans Came the final blow, mmm-hmm-hmm And somehow, somewhere, we lost sight In our search for that pot of gold And all that happened, I don't understand Could somebody here, somebody, please explain to me? 'Cause I'm feeling so damn deceived [Chorus] And I can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately Theatre of my soul Play on, child [Guitar Solo] [Verse 2] Ashes to ashes, like the good Lord lays us down Dust to dust, oh, no The time has come to lay to rest the years All the years it took this heart to trust Maybe too much, too soon, I couldn't get my head on straight All that worry just wasted time Now, it's much too late to save it [Chorus] Long forgotten midnight dancer Plays her final role, mmm-hmm-hmm The curtain falls and I'm still standing Theatre of my soul you left in vain Could someone please explain? And I said [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] I know that nothing's the same Riding blind on the winds of change But in my head, that scene just keeps on playing [Outro] Long forgotten midnight dancer Plays her final role, oh, yes, she does (Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately) The curtain falls and I'm still standing In the theatre of my soul (Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately) When time, it just keeps on passing I got to let it go, let it roll, let it roll, let it roll, let it roll (Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately) Keep searching for those long lost answers In the theatre of my soul (Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately) Theatre of my soul
