Kiss - Long Way Down lyrics

Gypsy, has eyes that hide the secrets no one sees

Easy, you smile until she brings you to your knees

Stick around 'til you get the truth

Taste blood when you get your proof (oh yeah)

Find that you've never understood

Give it all, but it's meant for good (oh yeah)

And I know this life makes fools of wise men, thieves, and kings (yeah)

When we lose we live our lives like puppets on a string

Close your eyes and you'll lose your soul

Do your time, but there's no parole from here

No chance when the end is near

Hear the words that you never thought you'd hear (yeah)

Life whispers in your ear


[Chorus]

It's a long way down

When ground starts comin'

I tried to tell you, but you would not listen

It's a long way when you fall from the top


Yeah!


[Guitar Solo]


Build it all on a bed of lies

Standing tall 'til you realize you're here

Look away, but you can't pretend

Gonna pray for a way when the end is near

Life whispers in your ear


It's a long way down

When the ground starts comin'

I tried to tell you

But you would not listen

It's a long way

Such a long, long way

It's a long way down

When the ground starts comin'

I tried to tell you

But you would not listen

It's a long way

Such a long, long way

A long way down

A long way down

When you fall from the top


All For The Love of Rock & Roll

(Paul Stanley)


Yeah, yeah

Mmmmmm

Whoo

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/k/kiss/long+way+down_21033301.html ]

[Verse]

I was just another child going wild in the city

Just gettin' by on a dream

I was thinking life was gonna be so pretty,

It was pretty mean

Yeah


I hit the road with no expectations

Just leaving where I'd been

I didn't care about the fame or the money

Show me a place to play and I'm gonna go


[Chorus]

'Cause it's all for the love of rock and roll

Hear my music in the air, and I'm losing control

I don't care what you heard, I don't care what you're told

'Cause it's all for the love of rock and roll


[Verse]

I hitched a ride on a trip going nowhere

Got fifty bucks and I'm fine.

Ain't a lot of dough but when you know the feeling.

Well it feels alright, alright


When you're finished with the band and some honey grabs your hand, yeah

You get to thinking you might

That's when you notice there's a ring on her finger

That's when she tells you that she's single tonight


[Chorus]

Well it's all for the love of rock and roll

Hear my music in the air, and I'm losing control

I don't care what you heard, I don't care what you're told

'Cause it's all for the love of rock and roll


I've got it made when I hit the stage at quarter to nine (yeah)

Watch them dancin' in the haze and the band's really pumping

You feel the rush and that's all it's about

I'm in for life and there's no getting out of the way


[Guitar Solo]


Yeah

All I want...

All I need...


Yeah, 'cause it's all for the love of rock and roll

Hear my music in the air, and I'm losing control

I don't care what you heard, I don't care what you're told

'Cause it's all for the love of rock and roll

All for my love of rock and roll...
