"This Side Of Paradise"I'm ridin' in the back seat - nine years oldStarin' out the window countin' the highway polesAnd then I get to thinkin' - that it don't seem realI'm flyin' through the universe in a '69 oldsmobileAnd I wanna know what they're not tellin'And I don't wanna hear no liesI just want something to believe inAh - it's a lonely lonely road I'm onThis side of paradiseI'm ridin' in the back seat - black limousineStarin' out the window at a funeral sceneAnd then I get to thinkin' - and it don't seem rightI'm sittin' here safe and sound and someone I love is gone tonightI wanna know what they're not tellin'And I don't wanna hear no liesI just want something to believe inAh - it's a lonely, lonely road we're onThis side of paradiseThere ain't no crystal ball - there ain't no santa clausThere ain't no fairy talesThere ain't no streets of goldThere ain't no chosen few - ya it's just me and youAnd that's all we got ya...that's all we got to hold on toYa this side of paradiseI remember bein' a little boy in the backseat - nine years oldAlways askin' questions - never did what I was toldAnd then I get to thinkin' like I always doWe wander 'round in the darkness but every now and thenA little light shines throughI want to know what they're not tellingI don't wanna hear no liesI just want something to believe inAh - it's a lonely lonely road we're onThis side of paradise
