I got my plans from trembling hands
I knew just what to do
Follow each step carefully
And hope they pulled me through
My father ran to different lands
And not a word we spoke
I was here to conquer fear
And bring some glory home
There's a world of hate and sorrow
out there standing in your way
There's a load of compromise
before you die
And each time you step forward
You get burned a little bit
No longer know the way to say goodbye
Now I'm down here underneath your bedroom light
Rena please come out with me tonight.
I look in through the window
And I though I'd take my chance
I taught myself to play
so I could be where people danced
No higher call than stars that fall
I waited patiently
A thousand miles of pavement
That became my destiny
You can wait a lonely lifetime
Wondering when it's gonna come
You can while away the hours getting stoned
But one day you get lucky
And you look in someone's eyes
That tell you you don't have to be alone
Now I'm falling back just out of your sight
Rena please come out with me tonight
Oh now I know the way things go
And what I put you through
Cause when they try to get to me ( repeat twice)
/ / / / ,, / / /:]
They get to me through you
I know it's not the kind of hurt that's easily set right
And I know you got your reasons to stay inside
But nothing ever happens when it's left out on it's own
You locked in there with just your wounded pride
I'm down here and I'm way too tired to fight
Rena please come out with me tonight
Rena please come out with me tonight
