Lyrics
when you hate yourself my friend
Cause you never face your lonely soul, in that dark and lonely hour
In that dark and lonely hour, and you ve got yourself a potion
and i ve seen you in the cities
you don t know where you re goin
Say how will i ever know, and then you turn and ask me
Open up again, open up my friend REO, say you know you ve got to run
And you talk about your sinkin, you expect for me to love you
And i hear your mournful songs, you never face the gloom Open, you expect for me to love you
Love someone if you can, and what a hole you re in, in that dark and lonely hour
Cause your brain is a heavy load, runnin till you find your doom, when you hate yourself my friend
and you talk about your sinkin
Open up my friend, oh to keep you from your sleep
And i may see you tomorrow, and then you turn and ask me, and i hear your mournful songs
love someone if you can
and then you turn and ask me
Runnin till you find your doom, and you ve got yourself a potion Speedwagon, open up again
And you ve got yourself a potion, or nevermore again, runnin till you find your doom
cause your brain is a heavy load
runnin till you find your doom
And i ve seen the light of hunger, and i hear your mournful songs, i ve seen you on the road
You don t know where you re goin, and i ve seen the light of hunger, love someone if you can
And you talk of all your searchin, you won t talk of where you ve been, and then you turn and ask me
you won t talk of where you ve been
Open up again, and you ve got yourself a potion, well i ve heard you laugh and weep
I ve seen you on the road, you won t talk of where you ve been
In that dark and lonely hour, love someone if you can Open, you never face the gloom
And i ve seen the light of hunger, and i hear your mournful songs
say how will i ever know
And i ve seen you in the cities, say how will i ever know REO, and i may see you tomorrow
You expect for me to love you, and what a hole you re in
And i ve seen you in the cities, oh to keep you from your sleep
You don t know who to follow, and then you turn and ask me, runnin till you find your doom
Runnin till you find your doom, and what a hole you re in REO, you don t know where you re goin
You expect for me to love you, open up again REO, but you ll always be a-runnin
I hear your painful crys, linger deep within your eyes
Say you know you ve got to run, in that dark and lonely hour REO, in that dark and lonely hour
But i think it s all for show, you don t know where you re goin Speedwagon, cause your brain is a heavy load
Oh to keep you from your sleep, you know you ve got to hide, open up again
Cause you never face your lonely soul, and what a hole you re in
And i may see you tomorrow, and you talk of all your searchin
And you talk about your sinkin, you don t know who to follow Up, i ve seen you on the road
Love someone if you can, and your face is all a-twisted
and you talk of all your searchin
Or who is on your side, but you ll always be a-runnin, love someone if you can
but i think it s all for show
in that dark and lonely hour
Open up my friend, i hear your painful crys
Cause your brain is a heavy load, i ve seen you on the road
You know you ve got to hide, love someone if you can
You expect for me to love you, but you ll always be a-runnin Up, open up my friend
I ve seen you on the road, in that dark and lonely hour
Say you know you ve got to run, you know you ve got to hide, or nevermore again
Say how will i ever know, in that dark and lonely hour
Say how will i ever know, and i ve seen you in the cities, or who is on your side
Say how will i ever know, when you hate yourself my friend Open, open up again
And i ve seen you in the cities, and what a hole you re in
say you know you ve got to run
