\nThese Days<\/strong>
\nJon Bon Jovi<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

I was walking around, just a face in the crowd
\nTrying to keep myself out of the rain
\nSaw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown
\nWondered if I might end up the same
\nThere’s a man out on the corner
\nSinging old songs about change
\nEverybody got their cross to bare, these days<\/p>\n

She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams
\nTo a motel room on the boulevard
\nGuess she’s trying to be James Dean
\nShe’s seen all the disciples and all the ‘wanna be’s’
\nNo one wants to be themselves these days
\nStill theres nothing to hold on to but these days
\n
\nThese days – the stars seem out of reach
\nThese days – there ain’t a ladder on these streets
\nThese days – are fast, love don’t last in this graceless age
\nThere ain’t nobody left but us these days<\/p>\n

Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly
\nFrom a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes
\nHis momma said he was crazy – he said momma “I’ve got to try”
\nDont you know that all my heroes died
\nAnd I guess I’d rather die than fade away<\/p>\n

These days – the stars seem out of reach
\nBut these days – there ain’t a ladder on these streets
\nThese days are fast, love don’t lasts-in this graceless age
\nEven innocence has caught the morning train
\nAnd there ain’t nobody left but us these days<\/p>\n

I know Rome’s still burning
\nThough the times have changed
\nThis world keepd turning round and round and round and round
\nThese days<\/p>\n

These days – the stars seem out of reach
\nBut these days – there ain’t a ladder on these streets
\nThese days are fast, love don’t lasts-in this graceless age
\nEven innocence has caught the morning train
\nAnd there ain’t nobody left but us these days<\/p>\n

These days – the stars seem out of reach
\nThese days – there ain’t a ladder on these streets
\nThese days – are fast, nothing lasts
\nThere ain’t no time to waste
\nThere ain’t nobody left to take the blame
\nThere ain’t nobody left but us these days<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\"Technorati\"\/<\/a> Jon Bon Jovi<\/a>\"Wikipedia\"\/<\/a> Jon Bon Jovi<\/a>
