It's been a long, long time since I lost myself.
Put my pride down on the table put my fear on the shelf.
So I bought myself a throne to reside, let myself go.
But I've traveled much too far, where I've gone I'll never know.
What a long, long time
Long, long time
It's been a little old while since I felt so fine.
Wanderin' in the rain.
Losing my mind.
What a long, long time.
What a long, long time.
My days I've spent relaxing turned to nights relaxin' too.
A thousand eyes upon me, but my sights are missing you.
So this time I swear I will loosen my grip.
On past times, and bad lines, and meaningless trips.
What a long, long time
Long, long time
It's been a little old while since I felt so fine.
Wanderin' in the rain.
Losing my mind.
What a long, long time.
What a long, long time
So, over and over mile signs pass by my side.
The more you try to find yourself the more you tend to hide.
Behind these forest trees and greens that blind your eyes.
To lounge upon that throne I bought,
Confer there with the wise.
What a long, long time
Long, long time
It's been a little old while since I felt so fine.
Wanderin' in the rain.
Losing my mind.
What a long, long time.
Long time.
So here we appear, the rest lost themselves in a pit of fear.
For who? What can I do? But let them all come through the wall.
And though some oppose many of these things I know.
I'll stay here alone, and lose myself on the riverways of days.
I'm coming home.
What a long, long time.
Long, long time.
It's been a little old while since I felt so fine.
Wanderin' in the rain.
Losing my mind.
What a long, long time.

I am in love with the McDonald's Girl
She has the smile of innocence oh so tender and warm.
I am in love with the McDonald's Girl
She is an angel in a polyester uniform
I leave from softball practice every night
It's getting dark but the golden arches light up the way.
I turn the corner at the traffic light.
I count my money and then I rehearse what I'm gonna say,
"I'd like an order of fries, a quarter pounder with cheese,
I love the light in your eyes. Will you go out with me please?"
I am in love with the McDonald's Girl…
She doesn't try to impress anyone
She's doesn't act real tough like all the other girls that I know.
She don't treat me like a simpleton.
She's not afraid to be the only other virgin I know.
And when my hamburgers cold, I get up ready to go,
She's only 15 years old, and I'm in love with her so…
I am in love with the McDonald's Girl…
There she stands behind the register
Taking orders from the Saddle River Little League
If they knew how much I wanted her
Their homeroom teacher would have to send them home for a week.
And as I head for the door, the movement catches her eye,
My heart begins to soar, she smiles and waves goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.
I am in love with the McDonald's Girl
She has the smile of innocence oh so tender and warm.
I am in love with the McDonald's Girl
She is an angel in a polyester uniform
