Lyrics

Dave peverett - riff bros. music - ascap

Remember me, you were a friend of mine
Restless and young, I'm the one you made love to for the first time
Now look at you, what you been up to, since I saw you last?
Your hair's a mess, you're half-dressed, you're loaded and you're fadin' fast

All the dreams, you had of wealth and fame
You took to the city, what a shame, they're all shattered, now your heart's in pain
Makin love for a livin', you've given up, all you've got's a heart of stone
Makin' the most of a sad situation, paradise alley's your home

Paradise alley, what a way to be alone
Paradise alley, a thousand miles away from home, yeah

Lookin' back, I still recall the time
I wonder how in the world was it so easy to be so unkind
Will you be sorry when you realize the story has to end this way?
Lost in the night, never quite getting used to all the games they play

You wait in vain, and your heart's in pain
And dreams are all you have to hold on to
You're losin' touch and it hurts so much
To think of all the love I had for you

Paradise alley, what a way to be alone
Paradise alley, a thousand miles away from home, yeah

{Rod - slide solo}

Paradise alley, what a way to be alone
Paradise alley, a thousand miles away from home

Paradise alley, what a place to call your home
Paradise alley, what a way to be alone, yeah

{Rod - solo to fade}
