Late one afternoon I'm crawling Make myself another drink I'll be up till four in the morning I try so hard but I can't sleep And I can't tell ya How it feels to be free These city nights got me feeling alright I could stay but it just ain't right Places to go and I'll call you You call me and say we should go for a drive This ride won't last forever I see it now and then We'll drink and smoke and laugh together then Start it over again And I can't tell ya How it feels to be right Right around the corner from Monday The fun is slowly creeping to an end If there is a story I'd tell you There ain't no other way I'd rather spend And I can't tell ya What it means to be you
