Riding High
by Larry Norman

Album: The Very Best of Larry Norman - Volume 1

As I wander through this city
In a nameless town I walk
Now I got this empty feeling
Names on sidewalks scribed in chalk
But flower people cannot talk.

Can this be a city's tombstone?
Broken neon signs that say
Happy days are here forever
I think I'm in a plane
So let me think about today
What will become of me now that I'm here?
When will the crowd give a cheer?

Have you got the time of day
It doesn't bother me
The time I've got can fill a day and one eternity
It seems so strange, it doesn't change
There's no one here but me
I wouldn't like to take a chance and ruin reality
So long ago the city roared, it filled me inside out
Today I find an empty piece, I shared it with myself.

Look into windows where people have been
No one expected to win.

Climbing stairs to reach the ending
Of a life that's been a sham
Why should I be left to wander?
City, won't you take this land?
No one left to lend a hand
Everything happens when nothing's the same.

Somebody tell me my name - Somebody tell me my name
Somebody tell me my name
Somebody tell me my name
Somebody tell me my name
Somebody tell me my name
Somebody tell me my name
Somebody tell me my name
Somebody tell me my name
