Time was driftin', this rock has got to roll
So I hit the road and made my getaway
Restless feeling, I really gotta hold
So I started searching for a better way
And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night
But I couldn't see the light, no I couldn't see the light
I kept on looking for a way to take me through the night
But I couldn't get it right, couldn't get it right
LA fever, made me feel alright
But I must admit it got the best of me
Gettin' down, so deep I could've drowned
Now I can't get back to where I used to be
And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night
But I couldn't see the light, no I couldn't see the light
I kept on looking for a way to take me through the night
Couldn't get it right, couldn't get it right
New York City, took me with the tide
And I nearly died from hospitality
Left me stranded, took away my pride
Just another know it all fatality
And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night
But I couldn't see the light, no I couldn't see the light
I kept on looking for a way to take me through the night
Couldn't get it right, couldn't get it right
