A Far Cry

歌詞

He was born in New York On a subway train Raised up in poverty Hell, don't even have a name He looks up while he's singing for a quarter At the girl in a limousine Reaching out just to touch her She looks down laughing at him Waiting, waiting every morning Hoping things are going to change He can hear her say All that I've got, all that you're not Such a far cry from love All that I see, always you'll be Such a far cry from love, oh... Rich man makes him an offer Perfect way to a poor boy's dream You want the girl, you want the power Here's a way to be just like me Sell this crack from off the corner Fate is waiting here for you, then he says All that I've got, all that you're not Such a far cry from love All that I see, always you'll be Such a far cry from love Open your eyes don't you realize You're a far cry from love So impressed with the name you're making See the neon shine Now she's shooting up the love she's faking Don't you know it's not too late to change your life Oh... Mmm... All that you've got, baby, you're not Such a far cry from love All that you've seen, never you'll be Such a far cry from love Take your best shot, know that you're not Such a far cry from love Take it from me, baby, I've been Such a far cry from love, from love Far, far cry from love Come on
