turn THE page

turn the page / metallica

.On a long and lonesome highway, east of omaha
You can listen to the engine moaning out its one lone song
,You can think about woman, or the girl you knew the night before
.But your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do
When your riding sixteen hours and theres nothing much to do
.And you dont feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through
.Say, here I am, on the road again. there I am, up on the stage
.Here I go, playing star again
.There I go, turn the page
,Well you walk into a restaurant, strung out from the road
You can feel the eyes upon you as your shaking off the cold
.You pretend it doesnt bother you, but you just want to explode
.Most times you cant hear em talk, other times you can
Oh the same old cliche, as that woman on her a man
.You always see my number, you dont dare make a stand
.Here I am, on the road again. there I am, up on the stage
.Here I go, playing star again
.There I go, turn the page

,Out there in the spotlight your a million miles away

,Every ounce of energy, you try and give away
.As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play
,Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
,With the echo from the amplifiers ringing in your head
.You smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what she said
.Now here I am, on the road again. there I am, up on the stage
.Here I go, playing star again
.There I go, turn the page
.Here I am, on the road again. there I am, up on the stage
.Ah here I go, playing star again
There I go, there I go.
