By The Fireside

Living on a New York dream
Isn't easy as it seems
Takes the breath of any man
Hesitation leads to fall
Builds a high subversive wall
Shakes the effort to an end

Complications never fail
Make sure to never jump the trail
Leaving everything to be
Appreciate a good advice
It does help appearing nice
A bearing anybody sees

For a while we stood there waiting by the fireside
And I knew that someone else would see my shadow
Standing here I just don't know where I'm supposed to hide
Once more, once more

Living on a New York time
Makes for everlasting shine
Takes the feeling out of smiles
Don't build a bridge with dynamite
Don't walk the dark without a light
Look back and learn the covered mile

Never fear to jump a goal
Just remember you've been told
Everything comes with a price
If connections never call
Don't forget you're here at all
Silent preacher for the wise

For a while we stood there waiting by that fireside
And I knew that someone else would see my shadow
Standing here I just don't know where I'm supposed to hide

Want to listen to everybody
I know it's the top of the tempo
Seek and question the ever-wanted
You know this is all they are built on, yeah

For a while we stood there waiting by that fireside
And I knew that someone else would see my shadow
Standing here I just don't know where I'm supposed to...

For a while we stood there waiting by the fireside
And I knew that someone else would see my shadow
Standing here I just don't know where I'm supposed to hide
