I wanna know how you got so far
Hoping that you'll be a star
My body's tired of waiting around
While everybody's putting on your crown
But I've never been any good at
Being one to calculate
How to carry this much weight
And walk it straight
Somehow it's got to come around
And maybe I can gain some ground
But my laws got rules
And It's a taste hard to wash down
I let go of my pride
There ain't much left to hide
When will you come back down to the world, my darling
When will you come back to your home
I've been waiting for you to come back from where you roam
It's all in your mind
And I hope you'll find
It's all in your mind
Can you take a chance on me, my darling
I am asking you in advance
In case I lost you on the way to love
I won't back down
Looking out my window
I wonder if it's raining where you are
And it's late October
When I never see your face no more
It may seem it's falling through
But that's cause I'm not there by you
Love's not there to keep us crying, love
And I don't want to leave you picking up
All the pieces
Hold your head up, darling
Take a breath and open up the door
When it's missing, honey
Please don't think that I am wanting more
