Lies Of A Lonely Friend

I ain't no wide eyed rebel
Oh but I ain't no preacher's son
And now I see the trouble
And all the loving that I've done
And the world
Ain't no harder
Than it's ever been
Looking for love
In the lies of a lonely friend
And so much superstition
And so much worry in my heart
I need a new religion
It's time to make a brand new start
And the world
Ain't no easier
Than it's ever been
Looking for love
In the lies of a lonely friend
Remember when we were in California
We were so much happier then
Now were back in New York city
Looking for love
In the lies of a lonely friend
And now the clocks are running
And no one knows where time goes
You know the moon is stunning
It's only shadows that she shows
And the world
Ain't no harder
Than it's ever been
Looking for love
In the lies of a lonely friend
I ain't no wide eyed rebel
But I ain't no preacher's son
