Times Like These

Tell me a secret or 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

[Chorus:]
In times like these
It's hard to keep a man off his knees
In time like these
It's hard to keep a man off his knees

Over a barrel, under the spell
Money's the demon that drives you
Limping through heaven or running through hell
Happiness smiles but denies you

[Chorus]

Nothing before you, nothing behind
Thoughtlessly chasing the thunder
Traveling lightly, traveling blind
Never detouring to wonder why

Tell me a secret or 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

[Chorus]

Nothing before you, nothing behind
Thoughtlessly chasing the thunder
Traveling lightly, traveling blind
Never detouring to wonder why
