Well, they all cry at the show
If I wear my best pretty suit,
I promise not to go
No, I can't perform tonight
Cause the stage is cold
with fright
And I've gone to brighter pastures
And I found so many friend s
I got lost over the ages
And I turned so many pages
In the hallways of the sage
I guess our show must end
Once again
Did they talk much with my father?
No hallelujah
Still he tilts the holy water
Yeah your eyes tell it all out loud
Heavy skies but not a cloud
And I sang my last confession
Yeah, I sang to my old friend s
I got lost over the ages,
and I burned was little wages
In the hallways of the sage,
I guess I showed my stand once
again
Now the neon's flashing,
I've had my moment,
now it's time for me to go
They're stagging all the tables
Sweeping ashes from the floor
And they'll question my redemption
As I lay my weary head
I got lost over the ages
But I learned I found my place in
The hallways of the sage
I guess I sure must be
I guess I showed my spirit once again
