Rudy Lyrics

(intro - music)

Rudy's on a train to nowhere,

Half-way down the line.

He don't wanna get there,

But he needs time.

He ain't sophisticated, 

Or well educated.

Now count all the hours he's wasted,

Still he needs time... 

He needs time!

He needs a time for living

He needs time

For someone just to see him

He ain't had no love yeah

For no reason nor rhyme

And the whole world's above him

Oh it's not as though he's fat

No, there's more to it than that

See he tried to play it cool

But he been about his fool

(guitar solo)

Rudy thought,

That all good things,

Comes to those that wait

But recently,

He could see

That it may come, but too late.. too late... too late

(music interval)

All through your life

All through the years

Nobody loves

Nobody cares

So see the light

Don't, count your fears

Try as I might,

I can't hold back the tears

How can you live, without love, it's not fair

Someone said give, but I just didn't dare

I didn't dare

I didn't dare

What beautifies

Are you waiting to hear?

Hearing's alright

You'd better, you'd better get control of

You'd better show 'em all now

You'd better take or break 'em

You'd better give 'em take 'em

You'll have to push and show them

You'll have to find some love now...

You'd better get control now

(music interval)

(sound interval - train station)

Now he's just come out the movie

Numb of all the pain

Sad but in a while he'll soon be

Back on his train
