Savatage - A Little Too Far lyrics

Do you remember

Look at me

And all the things we'd said we'd be

We'd beat the house

We'd push the odds

We'd take it all we had the cards

With years to burn

And years to trash

Living lies based on flash

But somehow reaching for the stars

I think we went a bit too far

Got to get back

Got to get back

I never meant to take it this far

When everything you touch turns gold

Can weigh you down

Can make you old

When metal doesn't ring the same

Reaction from inside your brain

And all those years we offered up

To gods who couldn't get enough

And though we still stay up all night

The mornings aren't quite as bright

Got to get back

Got to get back

I never meant to take it this far

And all those things we thought we'd learned

As we watched our bridges burn

While standing in the afterglow

I guess we gave them quite a show

When John Wayne caught the last train out

And Spock and Kirk have had enough

And no one's left to beam me up

Got to get back

Got to get back

I never meant to take it this far
