I ain't no wide eyed rebel Oh, but I ain't no preacher's son And now I see the trouble And all the loving that I have done And the world ain't no harder Than it's ever been Looking for love In the lies of a lonely friend And so much superstition And so much worry in my heart I need a new religion It's time to make a brand new start And the world ain't no easier Than it's ever been Looking for love In the lies of lonely friend Remember when we were in California We were so much happier then Now we're back in New York City Looking for love in the lies of a lonely friend And now the clocks are running And no one knows where time goes You know the moon is stunning It's only shadows that she shows And the world ain't no harder Than it's ever been Looking for love In the lies of lonely friend I ain't no wide eyed rebel Oh, but I ain't no preacher's son
