I've been down but not like this before

[leftofthedial]

Can't be 'round this kind of show no more

All, all that you dream
Comes through shining silver lining clouds
Clouds change the scene
Rain starts washing all those cautions into your life
Makes you realize just what is true
What else can you do
Just follow the rules
Keep your eyes on the road that's ahead of you

I've been down but not like this before
Can't be 'round this kind of show no more

All of the good times were ours
In the land of milk and honey
Time, time adds its scars
Rainy days they turn to sunny ones
Living the life, living the life, loving everyone

I've been down but not like this before
Can't be 'round this kind of show no more
I've been down but not like this before
Can't be 'round this kind of show no more

1. Have you heard Linda Ronstadt's cover of it on "Back in the USA?"

2. yes

I was a big-time Ronstadt fan

3. I was a small time Ronstadt fan

mostly for the roller skates.
A few years ago I happened on a collection of her songs
looked at a bunch of the titles I remembered and thought
"good Lord, these are all songs about sadness and heartache"
so I did not add very many of them to my collection
I haven't got time for the pain.
