Chasing' the sun...instrumental intro... ~© Bruce Langston 2010....Emaj7 it's a wonderful day ...friends and neighbors can play in the lane ...by the silvery trees... It's just a walk in the park, for the blind ...after dark ...as they feel what we never can see... Such a long time to be trying...such a long time to be wrong. Such a long time to be dying...just trying... to be one of the chosen ones....and ...always chasing the sun... Babe it's just you and me, and the powers that be , and the things that don't go the right way... Were just pawns on the lawn... all our gambits are gone... in a desecrated field of play Such a long time to be trying...such a long time to be wrong. Such a long time to be dying...just tryin' to live like the chosen ones....and ...always chasing the sun... solos All the merchants and misers getting richer wiser... big pictures that we never see. Eatin' oysters n' shells ...in their fancy hotels.....the whole world layin' right at their feet Such a long time to be trying...such a long time to be wrong. Such a long time to be dying...just trying to be one of the chosen ones....and ...always just chasing the sun... Politicians and toadies, just the sanctified roadies who betray what they barely command As we stand in their lines, in step to their rhymes ... and seek salvation we don't understand Such a long time to be trying...such a long time to be wrong. Such a long time to be dying...just trying win one for the chosen ones....and ...always chasing the sun ... it's such a wonderful day ...friends and neighbors still play by the light of the silvery trees... It's just a walk in the park, for all the blind ...after dark ...as we feel what we never can see... Such a long time to be trying...such a long time to be wrong. Such a long time to be dying...just trying to be among the chosen ones....and ...always chasing the sun... ....always flyin' too close to the sun Such a long time to be trying...such a long time to be wrong. Such a long time to be dying... end.
