Song & Emotion

I see a man most every day
A lonely man and his guitar, ooh yeah
Within his eyes, I see the pain
All the faces and the places
All the trouble that he'd seen, ooh yeah

There was a time, there was a day
They'd come from miles around
And they all knew his name
But days gone by are gone
Now only memories remain

Then he starts to play
Suddenly, the pain slowly fades away
Tattered, torn and frayed
There's a place within his heart he'll always save

For song and emotion
Know he's got 'til his dyin' day
Song and emotion
While you can hear him play
While you listen, you can still hear him say
"Better run for cover
'Cause it looks like rain again"

And now his life is but a shadow of his dreams
The calm is over, been stormin' for years
He turns, he leans his shoulder to the wind
Lost again

All along on his way to the top
Somehow, somewhere, somethin' was lost
But all he knew his only friend, and that was

Song and emotion
Know he's got 'til his dyin' day
Song and emotion

Where are they now? Where are those people
Who promised him his dream?
Where are they now? Poor man's lonely
Preacher on the streets
Broken, humbled by the cold reality
Life at the top ain't always what it seems

Now better run for cover
'Cause it looks like rain again
You best be careful
Of what you dream
You best be careful now
Of what you dream
Again
Oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah
Whoo!

Oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah

Song and emotion
Song and emotion
Song and emotion to his dying day
Song and emotion
