I`ve Been The One Lyrics

Lowell George



I've been the one who has been frightened 

And almost borne away 

By the very thoughts that I feared yesterday 

And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes 

How can I cry about something from someone that I won't see 



Oh my friends all say she had her chance 

Let's go shoot some pool 

You know a fool is just a fool 

And I've tried everything that whiskey cures 

But the pain endures 

And now I'm feeling that pain 

I put my pride in my pocket 

That's how I'll spend my loneliest days 

And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes 



Don't know what to do 

Hold the lamp above the rafters 

These smoke-filled rooms will not replace her 



I've been the one who has been frightened 

And almost borne away 

By the very thoughts that I feared yesterday 

And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes
