Fading Fast

Pulling out of Omaha
 Riding on the bookmobile
 Fingers on an old guitar
 Trying to find a feel
 Lord I just can't sleep tonight
 Not when we're moving this fast
 Trying to occupy my mind
 Watching the cornfields pass
 Though it's plain to see
 What's in front of me
 Though I know it's real
 I'm never gonna feel it all the way
 It's always time to go
 Another town another show
 Waiting down this dark empty road
 Out where nothing lasts
 Everything is fading fast
 Spent the night in Chi-Town
 Drinking with Intemperate Sons
 Every time my glass was down
 They said bring him another one
 Somebody wanted my autograph
 As I stumbled from the hotel bar
 Man all I could do was laugh
 And wonder how'd I get this far
 Though it's plain to see
 What's in front of me
 Though I know it's real
 I'm never gonna feel it all the way
 It's always time to go
 Another town another show
 Waiting down this dark empty road
 Out where nothing lasts
 Everything is fading fast
 All the songs I never play
 All the words I never say
 I just can't stand to say goodbye
 So I'll see you down the line
 Standing at the truck stop
 Shivering at the payphone wall
 My manger says that my single's been dropped
 And my sales are beginning to stall
 They want me to do more interviews
 I say please my voice is shot
 I'm trying to save it for the show tonight
 'Cause that's the only thrill I got
 Though it's plain to see
 What's in front of me
 Though I know it's real
 I'm never gonna feel it all the way
 It's always time to go
 Another town another show
 Waiting down this dark empty road
 Out where nothing lasts
 Everything is fading fast
 Everything is fading fast
 Everything is fading fast
