Interlude: '
There's no time this side of Jordan
There's no light that I can see
I went down to meet the doorman
Figured I'd just have a peek
Happiness is wanderin'
Lay inside and stay
Curled up in a corner
Locked in a blank stare
Refrain:
Oh where are my friends'
The doorman cries
I held out my hand
That's all I remember
There's no time this side of Jordan
Sing the sad old song
Swing me round just like a rag doll
In a child's arms
Refrain:
Now don't be un-kind
The doorman cried
His hand held to mine
That's all - I remember
