The further we stretch The higher the sky It get's harder The harder we try The faster we run The longer the road The stronger we get The bigger the load
Sometimes I get up feeling good but greed gets me down,
I try to think about the highs, the freedom we've found,
When the business in your life don't sit with your soul,
And they treat you like a child they need to control.
The music that we make will heal all our mistakes and lead us,
The music that we hear is always standing near to feed us.
We're all gonna rise above all things that we lack, Good vibrations that we make will come bouncing back.
The music that we make will heal all our mistakes and lead us,
The music that we hear is always standing near to feed us.
The music that we make will heal all our mistakes and lead us,
The music that we hear is always standing near to feed us.
The music that we make will heal all our mistakes and lead us,
The music that we hear is always standing near to feed us.
I have been looking forward to this night for weeks now, and been preparing for it as well.
These last nights have been quite long and more often than not ended after SunRise.
This one will be no exception.
Over 30 years ago this was part of an advertisement on Sky TV for a 3-Disc compilation of country songs - which I didn't order of course.
But somewhere in the back of my mind this one line that they played there somehow remained stored.
Inagine my surprise when earlier on The Universe was kind enough to send me the full version of that song.
Perfromed by The Boss with a full orchestra.
Sure.
And why not?
I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
Where hustle's the name of the game
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
There's been a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin on me
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
