Abalene Lyrics by Glen Burtnik

Heroes & Zeros

0

Statue of Liberty 1979
I stood in the crowd and thought the whole world was mine
Oh, here's a drink to the innocence gone by
And oh, here’s to how hard we tried
But it meant nothing at all
I held on but I kept on falling
Oh Abalene, who can say what might have been
I'm going through what only you could know
Whoa Abalene
I always get the feeling when I hear your name
I've been walking through the narrow streets in my dreams again
Oh if we could only start over once again
Then oh, would we still come to this end
Up against a frozen wall - out of breath and always calling oh Abalene
Oh Abalene, who can say what might have been
I’m going through what only you could know
Whoa Abalene
No matter where I'm wandering
No matter where I go
All I keep remembering, all I know is you
You won't let me go
And now I'm calling out - calling out
Reaching for something to hold that reminds me of you
Oh Abalene, who can say what might have been
I'm going through what only you could know
Whoa Abalene
