She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams To a motel room on the boulevard I guess she's trying to be James Dean She's seen all the disciples and all the 'wanna be's' no one wants to be themselfs these days Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days These days the stars ain't out of reach - These days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no These days are fast,love don`t last in this graceless age - There ain't nobody left but us these days Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes His momma said he was crazy - he said momma "I've got to try Don't you know that all my heroes died And I guess I rather die fade away - yeah Chorus These days the stars seem out of reach But these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no These days are fast, nothing lasts in a graceless age - Even innocence has caught the morning train There ain't nobody left but us these days () ( Oh, Oh,Oh, Oh,Oh,Oh, Oh,) I know Rome's still burning oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Trough the times have changed oh oh oh oh oh oh oh This world keeps turning round and round and round and round these days Solo: These days the stars seem out of reach But these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no These days are fast, nothing lasts in a graceless age - Even innocence has caught the morning train These days the stars seem out of reach But these days there ain't a ladder from the streets oh no no These days are best, nothing last great ain't no time to waste - There ain't nobody left to take the blame, oh, no no no Ain't nobody left but us these days
