John Norum – Songs Of Yesterday lyrics

When I look into your eyes
I know it's a betrayal
Staring down from far away
Hangin' around is like being locked in a jail
Ya know it ain't easy, right babe?

Oh it's not the right way
You're living out a lie
I can see it in your eyes
Oh you can't go back no more my friend
You're wearing a disguise
Hidin' from your fears
Living out a lie without a care

Some people get down when they're on the road
Some people get down when they're all alone
When you're around you always think
You know the answers to all the questions in the sky

Oh it's not the right way
You're living out a lie
I can see it in your eyes
Oh you can't go back no more my friend
You're wearing a disguise
Hidin' from your fears
Living out a lie without a care

When I look into your eyes
I know it's a betrayal
Staring down from far away
Hangin' around is like being locked in a jail
Ya know it ain't easy, right babe?

All of your dreams may pass
Songs of yesterday that's fading away
Hold on to what you have
Before it slips away
Spirit slips away oh yeah
