I hear that sad song playing on the radio I think it was summer of '69 It makes me think back on my life My boyhood hopes and dreams Of just living on my six string Sometimes there's an angel on my back Pushing me forward so I don't fall Apart my youthful days are over now And these memories are tearing me Please ease this pain The alcohol stopped working It's gotta be better than this They've been gone for days The stitches that hold me together I can't wait forever Sometimes there's an angel on my back
Pushing me forward so I don't fall Apart my youthful days are over now And these memories are tearing me The lights are getting dim The bar is getting empty Don't want to wait forever The lights are getting dim The bar is getting empty Don't want to wait forever Sometimes there's an angel on my back Pushing me forward so I don't fall Apart my youthful days are over now And these memories are tearing me Tried of trying (Take me) Tired of trying (Take me) So tried of trying Take me home
