I'll spend the night in a chair thinking
she'll be there but she never comes
I'll wake up and wipe the sea from my eyes and I'll
rise to spend another day without her
It's just no good anymore when you
walk through the door of an empty room
You go inside and set a table for one, it's no fun when
you have to spend the day without her
We burst the pretty balloon,
took us to the moon
such a beautiful thing but it's ended
now and it sounds like a lie
if i said i'd rather die than be
without her
love is a beautiful thing when it knows how
to swing and it grooves like a clock
but the hands on the clock tell
the lovers to part
it's breaking my heart to spend another
day without her
da -da -da, da -da -la -da -la, da -da -la -la -la,
da -da -la -la -la, da -da -da -la, la -da -da -la.
I spend the night in chair thinking she'll be
there but she never comes.
I wake up in white, a sleep in my eyes and
I rise to spend another day without her.
Can't go on without her
It's all wrong without her
Can't go on without her
I'm getting a big kick out of being
the producer of a hit single.
that never ever happened
to me in my whole life.
Got a couple of gold albums on the wall,
but never had a hit single.
That's always eluded me for 15 years.
Always wanted to be directly
involved with a hit single.
Now I turn on the radio
and you hear it all the time.
It's a real rush.
Save a lot of money on drugs.
Just turn on the radio.
There's a.
Like that, it's great.
It just turns you right
on, hear it.
That's my hand on that record,
I real good.
I just, in the time that I had off, I wrote a book,
I was just sitting around and I always
wanted to write a book, I wanted to write a book about the 60's,
a non -fiction book
about all the weird things that happened to me and the weird things that I saw,
so I wrote
this book.
Some company bought it even,
which really freaked me out. I said, give it to
an agent. I said, see if I can sell this turkey.
But a big publishing company bought it,
and
it's go ing to come out in the summertime.
I don't know what the name of it is, so don't
look for it.
But this is a song that is
sort of like an autobiography.
It's like the book,
but it's more emotional than factual.
It's an autobiography in 725 bars,
musical bars.
It's in
D tuning.
I have to take a second
and make sure it's right.
Okay,
I've got to take these earphones off too.
