Styx - Crystal Ball lyrics

rate me

Written by Tommy Shaw

Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw

I used to like to walk the straight and narrow line

I used to think that everything was fine

Sometimes I'd like to sit and gaze for days through sleepless dreams

All alone and trapped in time

All alone and trapped in time

I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me

Or am I even in it's mind at all

Perhaps I'll get a chance to look ahead and see

Soon as I find myself a crystal ball

Soon as I find myself a crystal ball

Tell me, tell me where I'm going

I don't know where I've been

Tell me, tell me, won't you tell me

And then tell me again

My heart is breaking, my body's aching

And I don't know where to go

Tell me, tell me, won't you tell me

I've just got to know

Crystal ball

There's so many things I need to know

Crystal ball

There's so many things I've got to know

Crystal ball

["extra verse" used occasionally live]

If you should see me walking

Through your dreams at night

Would you please direct me

Where I ought to be

I've been looking for a crystal ball

To shed the light

To find a future in me...

To find a future in me...

Crystal ball

There's so many things I need to know

Crystal ball

There's so many things I've got to know

Crystal ball
