Theatre of the Soul

On a cold night in a hotel in New Orleans

Came the final blow

And somehow somewhere we lost sight in our

Search for that pot of gold

And all that happened I don't understand

Could somebody here

Somebody here please explain to me

Because I'm dealin' so damn deceived

And I can't run, can't hide can't get nothing right lately

Theatre of my soul

Play on child

Ashes to ashes

Light the good lord lays us down

Dust to dust, oh no

The time has come to lay to rest the years

All the years it took this heart to trust

Maybe to much, too soon

I couldn't get my head on straight

All that worry just wasted time

And now it's much too late to save it

Long forgotten midnight dancer

Plays her final role

The curtain falls and I'm still standing

And the theatre of my should you left in vain

Could someone please explain

And I said

I know that nothing's the same

Riding blind on the winds of change

But in my head that scene keeps on playing

Long forgotten midnight dancer

Plays her final role

Oh yes she does

Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately

The curtain falls and I'm still standing

Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately

When, time it just keeps on passing

I got to let it go

Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll

Can't run, can't hide, can't get nothing right lately

I keep searching for those long lost answers

In the theatre of my soul

Theatre of my soul
