Ballad on Third Avenue
Ed Hale

I sat around thinking in my bed

about all the things that were left unsaid

You see I'm a man who's so out of date

If I loved you right it was my mistake

Well it takes me a whole century

To get to a place where I wanna be

I'm a clown for you

I wanna be with you

Even though I know you lie

But I recognize so do I

Come to me cause I need you now

Love is gone and girl I'm so strung out

Now I just compensate a thousand times

My sheets are warm but I'm cold inside

Yeah it's so hard in these cold and winter days

To try to find something to keep me awake

But you know that your tirades they hit me hard

I am always searching for that spark

That strikes gold in your eyes

'Cause you recognize the truth

I'm a lunatic

But so are you

A thousand psych wards could never hold us down

People like us tend to stay off the ground

You see when you come down to it in the end

True love never rolls around again

You know I wanna run through the halls of an art museum

With your picture in my arms screaming carpe diem

We gotta seize the day we gotta seize this love

We never know when it's going to turn up

So babe let's take our chances while we're still alive

And here's one final word of advice

Roses they may wilt but they never die

So won't you try?
