Lyrics
Take every dyin' day
with nothin' to believe in
Tell every lyin' dream
that nothin's gonna change
Tell every lonely soul
with nowhere left to go now
that everything they know
will always be the same
Show me a sign
Tell me that I'll be allright, it's okay
and then I might stay
I'd be waiting
Give me one thing to hold on to
Tell every screamin' blues
that finds you when you lose
that I'm just passin' through
and I don't have to play
It still is real big news
It's live or die you choose
Don't tell me 'bout no dues
It's always make or break
Show me a sign
Tell me that I'll be allright, it's okay
and then I might stay
I'd be waiting
Give me one thing to hold on to
Take every dyin' day
with nothin' to believe in
Tell every lyin' dream
that nothin's gonna change
Tell every lonely soul
with nowhere left to go now
that everything they know
will always be the same
Show me a sign
Tell me that I'll be okay with every dyin' day
