Times Like These

Times Like These - Dan Fogelberg

Tell me a secret

Tell me a lie

Tell me the truth if you have to

Say what you see fit

But don't ask me why

Love never seems to last you

In times like these

It's hard to keep a man off his knees

In times like these

It's hard to keep a man off his knees

Over a barrel

Under a spell

Money's the demon that drives you

Limping through heaven

Or running through hell

Happiness smiles but denies you

In times like these

It's hard to keep a man off his knees

In times like these

It's hard to keep a man off his knees

Nothing before you

Nothing behind

Thoughtlessly chasing the thunder

Travelling lightly

Travelling blind

Never detouring to wonder why

Tell me a secret

Tell me a lie

Tell me the truth if you have to

Say what you see fit

But don't ask me why

Love never seems to last you

In times like these

It's hard to keep a man off his knees

In times like these

It's hard to keep a man off his knees

Nothing before you

Nothing behind

Thoughtlessly chasing the thunder

Travelling lightly

Travelling blind

Never detouring to wonder why
