When dawn comes to touch my purple haze And evening's drowsiness to carry me away I know once again that there is nothing we can save So I'll pack up my things, I'll be on my way Yes, here I go again Off down the road again Thinking thoughts of days gone by Here I am again Singing my songs again Thinking and dreaming Thoughts of you and I Swirls of giant colors swam madly through my head I looked around to find you, but I just found him instead It might have been a dream for all the things we said But you promised me — Darling you promised me — Yes, and here I go again Off down the road again Thinking thoughts of things gone by Here I am again Singing my songs again Thinking and dreaming Oh I feel like I could cry Father's gone to fight the war He left us here alone I shiver in the lonesome night Beside the telephone But time brings no word I guess he's not coming home It feels like the end It feels like the end, my friend Here we go again Off down the road again Thinking thoughts of things gone by Here I am again Singing my songs again Thinking and dreaming Oh I feel like I could Thinking and dreaming Oh I feel like I could Thinking and dreaming Oh I feel like I could die Oh, yeah!
