lyrics: J. Morse © 1983 Everything seems perfect under the neon glare But stepping into daylight reveals what is really there Find something and think it's yours, but is it what you bought? A moment of crystal clarity shows your mercurial thoughts Can you search inside yourself? Find anything you want? You never seem to appreciate The things that you've already got What you have and what you want Can be two quite different things Must you always have satisfaction? Get the pole, and grab the ring Take a look behind you, the shadows seem to shift But maybe that's just in your head, your sanity in rift Face your memories, whirl around, grab the gold and don't get caught You know what brought all this about, those immaterial thoughts Can you search inside yourself? Find anything you want? You never seem to appreciate The things that you've already got What you have and what you want Can be two quite different things Must you always have satisfaction? Get the pole, and grab the ring Can you hold those shifting thoughts in check long enough to see the light? Can you keep your dreams from breaking into the solitude of the night? Can you understand yourself enough to put up a decent fight? Can you bind your changing thoughts in check until you know what's right? Can you search inside yourself? Find anything you want? You never seem to appreciate The things that you've already got What you have and what you want Can be two quite different things Must you always have satisfaction? Get the pole, and grab the ring |
