Albatross
I'm gonna let you know my name
I hope you say it right
But don't ask me for more than that
Let's enjoy the night
I know we've all got stories to tell
But sometimes the road to heaven is a long trip walking through hell
We've all got memories to burn
I'm glad you shared your story, but don't say it's my turn
I've got an albatross
Hanging around my neck
Like the quarantine
It's making me sick
I've got an albatross
A joker in the deck
I shoulda count the cost
If life's a blank check
So for now let's stay in the now
No future, no past
Be careful the thoughts you allow
The ones you have the most are the ones that last
I know we've all got stories to tell
But sometimes the road to heaven is a long trip walking through hell
We've all got memories to burn
I'm glad you shared your story, but don't say it's my turn
I've got an albatross
Hanging around my neck
Like the quarantine
It's making me sick
I've got an albatross
A joker in the deck
I shoulda count the cost
If life's a blank check
(This is the end of side one of this record)
(Please now turn it over for the second side)
(I've got to get this albatross offa me)
I've got an albatross
Hanging around my neck
Like the quarantine
It's making me sick
I've got an albatross
A joker in the deck
I shoulda count the cost
If life's a blank check
In this world you only go through
You only go through
You only go through once
In this life you only go through
You only go through
You only go through once
In this world you only go through
You only go through
You only go through once
In this life you only go through
You only go through
You only go through once
(In this world)
(In this life)
I hope you say it right
But don't ask me for more than that
Let's enjoy the night
I know we've all got stories to tell
But sometimes the road to heaven is a long trip walking through hell
We've all got memories to burn
I'm glad you shared your story, but don't say it's my turn
I've got an albatross
Hanging around my neck
Like the quarantine
It's making me sick
I've got an albatross
A joker in the deck
I shoulda count the cost
If life's a blank check
So for now let's stay in the now
No future, no past
Be careful the thoughts you allow
The ones you have the most are the ones that last
I know we've all got stories to tell
But sometimes the road to heaven is a long trip walking through hell
We've all got memories to burn
I'm glad you shared your story, but don't say it's my turn
I've got an albatross
Hanging around my neck
Like the quarantine
It's making me sick
I've got an albatross

I've got an albatross

If life's a blank check
In this world you only go through
You only go through
You only go through once
In this life you only go through
You only go through
You only go through once
In this world you only go through
You only go through
You only go through once
In this life you only go through
You only go through
You only go through once
(In this world)
(In this life)
