[00:09] I had it all or should
[00:17] I say, I saw it all
[00:22] And it'a a long way from the dust-bin of
[00:26] New Jersey to the top
[00:29] Who would've known
[00:35] Who would've known
[00:38] I had a dream
[00:45] But dreams had other plans for me
[00:50] For 30 years
[00:52] I set the thermostat where
[00:54] Frank Sinatra liked it
[00:57] Pulled his girls and all his hats
[00:59] I never knew which ones were mine
[01:03] Now he's gone
[01:08] And I'm alone
[01:16] And I don't know where
[01:17] I might be goin'
[01:18] I rode the wind, the wind stopped blowin'
[01:21] Set me on the roadside thumbing home
[01:27] But home for me was always someone else you know
[01:36] That shadows always fall when the sun goes down
[01:51] I shook the hands
[01:58] Of mafia dons and presidents
[02:04] And though they always smiled politely
[02:07] With a measure of decorum
[02:10] Still their eyes would scan beyond me
[02:13] For a glimpse of something more
[02:17] But now he's gone
[02:22] And now they're gone
[02:29] And I don't know where
[02:30] I might be goin'
[02:32] I know that when the winds stop blowing
[02:35] Set me on the roadside thumbing home
[02:41] But home for me was always someone else you know
[02:50] That shadows always fall when the sun goes down
[03:30] Alone
[03:33] A shadow of a star, don't-cha know
[03:38] That shadows always fall, yeah shadows always fall
[03:44] when the sun goes down
[03:47] And I don't know where
[03:49] I might be goin'
[03:50] I know that when the winds stop blowing
[03:53] Set me on the roadside thumbing home
[03:58] But home for me was always someone else you know
