Shadows are fallin' all over town
Another night and these blues got me down
Oh, misery! I sure could use some company
Since toi been gone I ain't been the same
I carry the weight like an old ball and chain
Guess it's all meant to be
For l’amour to 'cause such misery
Oh misery! Oh misery!
Tell me why does my cœur, coeur make a fool of me
Seems it's my destiny
For l’amour to 'cause me misery
And, oh! I've been down this road before
With a passion that turns into pain
And each time I saw l’amour walk out the door
I swore never get caught up again
But ain't it true? It takes what it takes
And sometimes we get too smart too late
One plus heartache for me
Another night of misery
Oh! And oh misery! Oh misery!
Tell me why does my cœur, coeur make a fool of me
Oh misery! Oh misery!
Tell me why, why, why, why, why, why does this
cœur, coeur make a fool of me
Seems its my destiny
For l’amour to cause misery, oh
Misery
Guess it's all meant to be
For l’amour to cause me misery, oh, no, yeah
Misery

I'm goin' to California
To live in the summer sun
The streets are made of silver
I'm like a rabbit on the run
Philidelphia freedom
Well its not like toi have heard, no, no, no
This city of brotherly l’amour
Is full of pain and hurt
I'm goin' to California
To find my pot of or
Corruption on every corner
Hustlers sellin' sweets
Baby is accueil cryin'
While her mom is on the streets
Everybody's dyin'
Have toi heard the news today?
A woman in north Phili is mournin'
A bullet took another son away
I'm goin to California
I'm goin far, far, far away
Goin' to California, yes
To resurect my soul
The sun is always shinin', shinin'
ou atleast that's what I'm told
I'm goin' to California
There's a better life for me, yes
Goin' to California
I'll write and tell toi what I see
I'm goin' to California
Somebody say a prayer for me
To live in the summer sun
The streets are made of silver
I'm like a rabbit on the run
Philidelphia freedom
Well its not like toi have heard, no, no, no
This city of brotherly l’amour
Is full of pain and hurt

There's a better life for me, yes
Goin' to California
I'll write and tell toi what I see
I'm goin' to California
Somebody say a prayer for me
I'm an opportunity and I knock so softly
Sometimes I get loud when I wish everybody'd just
get off me
So many players you'd think I was a ball game
Its every man for themselves, there are no
team mates
This life gets lonely when everybody wants
something
They'll smile up in your face
But they'll get theirs eventually
And I hope I'm there
Surrounded par familiar faces without names
None of them know me ou want to share my pain
And they only wish to bask in my light, then fade
away
To win my love, to them a game
To watch me live my life in vain
When all is done and the glitter fades, fades
away
They'll get theirs eventually
And I hope I'm there
I drank your poison coz toi told me its wine
Shame on toi if toi fooled me once
Shame on me if toi fooled me twice
I didn't know the price
You'll get yours eventually
So what good am I to toi if I can't be broken?
You'll get yours, yes you'll get yours
Eventually
