Bon Jovi — These Days lyrics

Lyrics

I was walking around, just a face in the crowd
Trying to keep myself out of the rain
Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown
Wondered if I might end up the same
ThereЂ™s a man out on the corner
Singing old songs about change
Everybody got their cross to bare, these days
She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams
To a motel room on the boulevard
Guess sheЂ™s trying to be james dean
SheЂ™s seen all the disciples and all the wanna beЂ™s
No one wants to be themselves these days
Still thereЂ™s nothing to hold on to but these days
These days — the stars seem out of reach
These days — there ainЂ™t a ladder on these streets
These days — are fast, love donЂ™t last in this graceless age
There ainЂ™t nobody left but us these days
Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly
From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes
His momma said he was crazy — he said momma IЂ™ve got to try
DonЂ™t you know that all my heroes died
And I guess IЂ™d rather die than fade away
These days — the stars seem out of reach
But these days — there ainЂ™t a ladder on these streets
These days are fast, love donЂ™t lasts-in this graceless age
Even innocence has caught the morning train
And there ainЂ™t nobody left but us these days
I know romeЂ™s still burning
Though the times have changed
This world keepd turning round and round and round and round
These days
These days — the stars seem out of reach
But these days — there ainЂ™t a ladder on these streets
These days are fast, love donЂ™t lasts-in this graceless age
Even innocence has caught the morning train
And there ainЂ™t nobody left but us these days
These days — the stars seem out of reach
These days — there ainЂ™t a ladder on these streets
These days — are fast, nothing lasts
There ainЂ™t no time to waste
There ainЂ™t nobody left to take the blame
There ainЂ™t nobody left but us these days
