Bon Jovi - These Days lyrics

I was walking around, just a face in the crowd

Trying to keep myself out of the rain

Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown

Wondered if I might end up the same

There`s a man out on the corner

Singing old songs about change

Everybody got their cross to bare, these days

She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams

To a motel room on the boulevard

Guess she`s trying to be James Dean

She`s seen all the disciples and all the "wanna be`s"

No one wants to be themselves these days

Still there`s nothing to hold on to but these days

These days - the stars seem out of reach

These days - there ain`t a ladder on these streets

These days - are fast, love don`t last in this graceless age

There ain`t nobody left but us these days

Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly

From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes

His momma said he was crazy - he said momma "I`ve got to try"

Don`t you know that all my heroes died

And I guess I`d rather die than fade away

These days - the stars seem out of reach

But these days - there ain`t a ladder on these streets

These days are fast, love don`t lasts-in this graceless age

Even innocence has caught the morning train

And there ain`t nobody left but us these days

I know Rome`s still burning

Though the times have changed

This world keepd turning round and round and round and round

These days

These days - the stars seem out of reach

But these days - there ain`t a ladder on these streets

These days are fast, love don`t lasts-in this graceless age

Even innocence has caught the morning train

And there ain`t nobody left but us these days

These days - the stars seem out of reach

These days - there ain`t a ladder on these streets

These days - are fast, nothing lasts

There ain`t no time to waste

There ain`t nobody left to take the blame

There ain`t nobody left but us these days
