Smiling like a bDaby full of dAreams 
Smiling ain't so easy now

AAin't you come a long way 
(Ain't you come a long way) 
Ain't you come a long way doEwn 
This old roAad  
ALooking at the glass
DRunning out of tAime 
DOn a face you used to kAnow 
Traces of a future lost 
DIn between the liAnes 
DOne more rainbow for the roEad
DThinking of the faces in the wiAndow 
DThat you passed along the wEay 
DOr the last thing you believed Ain

DSay you tried to chase the sun dAown 
DAnd you let it slip awEay 
DAnd the holy night is falAling
