One light blinking off and on   Blood of life in this town is gone   Lost all its pieces but the pawn   Tomorrow stopped coming with the dawn      In my dreams, I've seen   Things that only seem to happen on the silver screen   When it's over there's no walking out   'Cause I've been all they talk about   'Cause what ain't goin' down on main street      Never did the things I thought I would   Woulda left just didn't know I could   If things don't work out like they should   It ain't for better but it's for good      In my dreams, I've seen   Things that only seem to happen on the silver screen   When it's over there's no walking out   'Cause I've been all they talk about   'Cause what ain't goin' down on main street      I went too early with a friend of mine   Just to see what it was all about   Hit the freeway and it blew my mind   I had to find a way of gettin' out      She said, they say, "Hey you gotta live a little"   In my mind, I'd find lost ain't living   Even there in the middle of main street   Yeah      Never did the things I thought I would   Woulda left just didn't know I could   If things don't work out like they should   It ain't for better but it's for good      'Cause in my dreams I've seen   Things that only seem to happen on the silver screen   When it's over there's no walking out   'Cause I've been all they talk about   'Cause what ain't goin' down      In my dreams I've seen   Things that only seem to happen on the silver screen   When it's over there's no walking out   'Cause I've been all they talk about   'Cause what ain't goin' down on main street
