Peter Wolf - Long Line lyrics

So here I am, baby Right back where I'd been I've been tossed around and twisted up I'm on the outside lookin' in Every mountain has its valley Every valley has its climb I got the weary blues from tryin' 'Cause it's uphill all the time It's been a long, long line.... I don't believe in angels That watch you in the dark You're born alone, you die alone You ride lonesome from the start I've been chasing after fortune I've been running after fame It's like trying to paint the sides Of a fast moving train It's a long line.... These days are hard to figure And so damn hard to take When they're pa**ing on the real thing And just buying what is fake Last night I had a dream And I hope it's no sign That there was no end To this long, long line I remember the old photo And the letter that you sent I was so straight back then Now I'm twisted and I'm bent Blossoms on the tree They're so delicate and fine But when they fall from the branch They just wither down with time I can't help myself no matter how I try Desire has no rest And anger has no eyes Some people believe in miracles They say it happens all the time But I'm still waiting for the man Who turns water into wine It's a long, long line....
