Letra de This side of paradise

I'm ridin' in the back seat - nine years old
starin' out the window countin' the highway poles
and then i get to thinkin' - that it don't seem real
i'm flyin' through the universe in a '69 oldsmobile
and i wanna know what they're not tellin'
and i don't wanna hear no lies
i just want something to believe in
ah - it's a lonely lonely road i'm on
this side of paradise
i'm ridin' in the back seat - black limousine
starin' out the window at a funeral scene
and then i get to thinkin' - and it don't seem right
i'm sittin' here safe and sound and someone i love is gone tonight
i wanna know what they're not tellin'
and i don't wanna hear no lies
i just want something to believe in
ah - it's a lonely, lonely road we're on
this side of paradise
there ain't no crystal ball - there ain't no santa claus
there ain't no fairy tales
there ain't no streets of gold
there ain't no chosen few - ya it's just me and you
and that's all we got ya...that's all we got to hold on to
ya this side of paradise
i remember bein' a little boy in the backseat - nine years old
always askin' questions - never did what i was told
and then i get to thinkin' like i always do
we wander 'round in the darkness but every now and then
a little light shines through
i want to know what they're not telling
i don't wanna hear no lies
i just want something to believe in
ah - it's a lonely lonely road we're on
this side of paradise
