On the long ride to Munich I was glad to be alone I saw the future like a blanket On the foggy mountain roads When it was too late to go back And too early to call home I thought Everyone I love is asleep out there And I've got all of this new life I've gotta put somewhere I've gotta put somewhere A man who's name I can't pronounce And a waitress he'd once loved Took me dancing in a part of town That they were both fond of When it was too late to go back And I had nowhere to call home I thought Everyone they love is asleep out there And I'm just passing through on my way somewhere On my way somewhere Here comes the little sadness Here comes the little sadness again 'Cause you can't take it with you But for a moment I'll pretend You can't take it with you in the end On the night of some election We were walking in the park It was dusk and there were people out Guns strapped upon the guards I was noticed by some strangers As they waited for the train Someone was talking about America and asked me to explain I said everyone I love is asleep out there And I forgot I have a life of my own somewhere Here comes the little sadness Here comes the little sadness again Like a story I won't tell you Like a letter I can't send Because you can't take it with you in the end
