Todd Rundgren b. June 22, 1948

Somehow, someday,
We need just one victory and we're on our way.
Prayin' for it all day and fightin' for it all night,
Give us just one victory, it will be all right.

Oh demon alcohol,

Sad memories I can't recall,

Who thought I would say,

Damn it all and blow it all,

Oh demon alcohol,

Memories I can't recall,

Who thought I would fall a slave to demon alcohol.

Its automatic, when I
Talk with old friends,
The conversation turns to
Girls we knew, when their
Hair was soft and long and the
Beach was the place to go.

Yeah, smile away

Now the darkness only stays the night-time,
In the morning it will fade away.
Daylight is good at arriving at the right time,
It's not always going to be this grey.

All things must pass,
All things must pass away.

Think it over what you just said,
Think it over in your pretty little head.
Are you sure that I’m not the one, 
Is your love real or only fun.

A lonely heart grows cold and old.

You know how I feel, always running at someone's heel.
