All these kinds of places make it seem like it's been ages Tomorrow some new building will scrape the sky I love this country dearly I can feel the ladder clearly But I never thought I'd be alone to try Once I was outside Penn Station selling red and white carnations We were still alone my wife and I Before we married saved my money Brought my dear wife over Now I work to bring my family stateside But off the boat they stayed awhile then scattered across the coast Once a year I'll see them for a week or so at most I take a walk (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...) I take a walk (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...) Practice isn't perfect but the market cuts the loss I remind myself that times could be much worse My wife won't ask me questions There's not so much to ask And she'll never flaunt around an empty purse Once my mother-in-law came just to stay a couple nights Then decided she would stay the rest of her life I watch my little children play some board game in the kitchen And I sit and pray they never feel my strife But then my partner called to say the pension funds were gone He made some bad investments now the accounts are overdrawn I take a walk (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...) I take a walk (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...) Honey, it's your son I think I borrowed just too much We had taxes, we had bills, we had a lifestyle to front And tonight I swear I'll come home and we'll make love like we're young And tomorrow you'll cook dinner for the neighbors and their kids We can rip apart those socialists and all their damn taxes But see I am no criminal, I'm down on both bad knees I'm just too much a coward, to admit when I'm in need I take a walk (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...) I take a walk (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...) I take a walk (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...) I take a walk (Take a walk, take a walk, take a walk, take a walk...)

Let us talk no more, let us go to sleep, Let the rain fall on the window pane, And fill the castle keep, I am weary now, weary to my bones, Weary from the travelling, And the endless country roads, That brought us here tonight, for all this weekend, And a chance to work it out, For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart, It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart; She is sleeping now, softly in the night, And in my heart of darkness she has been the only light, I am lost in love, looking at her face, And still I hear the voice of reason, Telling me to chase these dreams away, Oh here we go again, we're divided from the start, For we cannot live together, and we cannot live apart, It's the classical dilemma between the head and the heart, The head and the heart; Now the dawn begins, and still I cannot sleep, My head is spinning round but now the way is clear to me, There is nothing left, nothing left to show, The jury and the judge will see, it's time to let her go, Now hear the heart: I believe that time will show, She will always be a part of my world, I don't want to see her go; So I plead my case to hear the heart, And stay... It's time to let her go - I don't want to let her go... It's time to let her go - I don't want to let her go... It's time to let her go - I don't want to let her go... It's time to let her go... And in this classical dilemma, I find for - the heart.
