from the songs album Use Your Illusion II
When you're talkin to yourself and nobody's home
You can fool yourself you came in this world alone, alone
So nobody ever told you baby how it was gonna be
So what'll happen to you baby, guess we'll have to wait and see
One, two
Old at heart but I'm only 28
And I'm much too young to let love break my heart
Young at heart but it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart
I don't know how you're s'posed to find me lately
And what more could you ask from me
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything, said you took everything from me
Young at heart and it gets so hard to wait
When no one, I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart but I musn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out
Still talkin' to myself and nobody's home, alone
So nobody ever told us baby how it was gonna be
So what'll happen to us baby, guess we'll have to wait and see
When I find out all the reasons, maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life, maybe I'll get it right next time
And now that you've been broken down, got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground and you don't talk so loud
An you don't walk so proud anymore, and what for
Well I jumped into the river too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own and drifting all alone
If it doesn't show, give it time to read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm getting closer and the waves they get so high
Seems everything we've ever known's here
Why must it drift away and die
I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it thru, this time, oh this time
Without you
I knew the storm was getting closer and all my friends said I was high
But everything we've ever known's here, I never wanted it to die
