JOURNEY THROUGH TITLES

I wish I were blind to some of the things I’ve seen,

While out in the street, many sad and haunting things were to be.

Could somebody tell me where Thunder Road lives?

I heard it was somewhere down by the river.

You know it takes a leap of faith to live through struggles,

Each morning we wake to the rising, it has meaning.

When we feel alone, it only takes a little human touch,

Otherwise, at times we just want to fade away.

Once walking the streets of Philadelphia, I felt trapped,

Before me was a darkness on the edge of town.

Have you ever had a lonesome day? Everything seemed to be missing,

You were the nothing man, searching for your land of hope and dreams.

I went back to my hometown, and I had to drive all night,

Atlantic City was the place where my lucky day.

It was warm out, everywhere there were girls in their Summer clothes,

There I stood, living proof that life is good.

In my thoughts, like Springsteen, I want to say I’m a rocker,

You know it’s a man’s job to take care of his family.

I believe everyone is born to run, and I know two hearts are better than one.

I’ll work for your love, sweetheart, because I love you.

The wrestler takes it one day at a time; he survives,

In certain situations, I am tougher than the rest.

Some are forced to live in places that resemble a jungle land

Remember, to survive in this world, the phrase is none but the brave.
