[00:12.60]I''m ridin'' in the back seat - nine years old
[00:16.98]Starin'' out the window countin'' the highway poles
[00:21.13]And then I get to thinkin'' - that it don''t seem real
[00:25.59]I''m flyin'' through the universe in a ''69 oldsmobile
[00:30.48]And I wanna know what they''re not tellin''
[00:33.88]And I don''t wanna hear no lies
[00:39.60]I just want something to believe in
[00:43.79]Ah - it''s a lonely lonely road I''m on
[00:52.85]This side of paradise
[01:00.53]
[01:04.44]I''m ridin'' in the back seat - black limousine
[01:08.87]Starin'' out the window at a funeral scene
[01:13.22]And then I get to thinkin'' - and it don''t seem right
[01:17.43]I''m sittin'' here safe and sound and someone I love is gone tonight
[01:22.24]I wanna know what they''re not tellin''
[01:25.70]And I don''t wanna hear no lies
[01:31.49]I just want something to believe in
[01:35.51]Ah - it''s a lonely, lonely road we''re on
[01:44.88]This side of paradise
[01:50.83]There ain''t no crystal ball - there ain''t no santa claus
[01:56.22]There ain''t no fairy tales
[01:58.50]There ain''t no streets of gold
[02:00.76]There ain''t no chosen few - ya it''s just me and you
[02:05.38]And that''s all we got ya...that''s all we got to hold on to
[02:13.48]Ya this side of paradise
[02:23.34]
[02:26.88]I remember bein'' a little boy in the backseat - nine years old
[02:32.42]Always askin'' questions - never did what I was told
[02:36.65]And then I get to thinkin'' like I always do
[02:40.70]We wander ''round in the darkness but every now and then
[02:44.08]A little light shines through
[02:46.04]I want to know what they''re not telling
[02:49.02]I don''t wanna hear no lies
[02:54.81]I just want something to believe in
[02:59.24]Ah - it''s a lonely lonely road we''re on
[03:12.65]This side of paradise
[03:18.87]Oh yeah~!
[03:23.72]This side of paradise
[03:32.90]yeah~yeah~yeah
