Devils hide within us man, ripping us from limb to limb But we have the strength to make it through Simple words can make a stand, tip the side of an old tin can That is my advice I have for you And when you're gone love nothing seems to work out right Love's gone by the wayside But when you're home love simple words are all I find Love comes by the wayside City lights, busy streets was the perfect place to meet Never knowing which way's up or down
Since I'm home, missing you, writing songs is all I do Makes it seems like you're still around 'Cause when you're gone love nothing seems to work out right Love's gone by the wayside When you're home love simple words are all I find Love comes by the wayside, yeah When you're gone love nothing seems to work out right Love's gone by the wayside But when you're home love simple words are all I find Love comes by the wayside, yeah
