On Being Frank

歌詞

I had it all Or should I say, I saw it all And it's a long way from the dustbin of New Jersey to the top Who would have known Who would have known I had a dream But dreams had other plans for me For thirty years I set the thermostat Where Frank Sinatra liked it Pulled his girls and hung his hats I never knew which ones were mine But now he's gone And I'm alone And I don't know where I might be going I rode the wind The wind stopped blowing Set me on the roadside thumbing home But home For me was always someone else You know that shadows always fall When the sun goes down I shook the hands Mafia dons and presidents And though they always smiled politely With a measure of decorum Still their eyes would scan beyond me For a glimpse of something more But now he's gone So now they're gone And I don't know where I might be going I rode the wind The wind stopped blowing Set me on the roadside thumbing home But home For me was always someone else You know that shadows always fall When the sun goes down Alone The shadow of a star Don't you know That shadows always fall Shadows always fall when the sun goes down
