I said I played this song

So many times before

That the melody keeps repeatin'

Growin' new ideas

Flowing chords and notes

Like a mountain river bleedin'

Well I said, as I look back

On all the thoughts I've had

They reflect just what I'm learnin'

Yes, you know that the hardest part

Yes, I said, is to stay on top

On top of the world forever, Johnny

Oh yeah, oh yeah



Well you say you're there

But I can see that your eyes are glad

Well what do you see, can you see

Can you see what I'm feelin'

Yes, I've seen your face before

I said I've seen it everywhere

Showin' all to me

With that, I said, revealin'

Well I said, will it ever change

Oh yes, Lord, I said

Will it stay the same

I'd surely like to know

Before it's over

Well I said I played this song

Yes, I said it won't be long

Won't be long before I start

To play it over

I, oh I, I've seen your face before

It's never gonna, never gonna change again

I, oh I, I been in one place too long

It's never gonna, never gonna change again
