Bon Jovi
I was walking around, just a face in the crowd
Trying to keep myself out of the rainSaw a vagabond kingWear a styrofoam crown
Wondered if I might end up the sameThere's a man out on the corner
Singing old songs about changeEverybody got their cross to bare these days
She came looking for some shelterWith a suitcase full of dreams
To a motel room on the boulevardGuess 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 daysStill there's nothing to hold on to
But these daysRefrain 1:These days the stars seemOut of reach
These days there ain't a ladder on these streetsOh no noThese days are fast
Love don't last in this graceless ageThere ain't nobody left but us these days
Jimmy Shoes busted both his legsTrying to learn to flyFrom a second story window
He just jumped and closed his eyesHis momma said he was crazy
He said "Mommy, I've got to try"Don't you know that all my heroes died
And I guess I`d rather dieThan fade away yeahRefrain 2:These days the stars seem
Out of reachThese days there ain't a ladder on the streetsThese days are fast
Nothing lasts in this graceless ageEven innocenceHas caught the morning train
And there ain't nobody left but us these daysI know Rome's still burning
Though the times have changedThis world keeps turning round
And round and round and round, these daysRefrain 2:These days the stars seem
Out of reach, yeahThese days there ain't a ladder on the streets, oh no no
These days are fast nothing lastsThere ain't no time to waste
There ain't nobody leftTo take the blame, oh no no
There ain't nobody left but us these daysAin't nobody left but us these days
