Lyrics Metallica – Turn The Page
Text:
On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha
You can listen to the engines moanin’ out its one note song
You can think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
And you don’t feel much like ridin’, you just wish the trip was through
Here I am, on the road again
There I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playin’ star again
There I go, turn the page
So you walk into this restaurant, all strung-out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you, as you’re shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesn’t bother you, but you just want to explode
And most times you can’t hear ’em talk, other times you can
All the same old clichés, «Is it woman? Is it man?»
And you always seem outnumbered, you don’t dare make a stand
Make your stand
Here I am, on the road again
There I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playin’ star again
There I go, turn the page
Out there in the spotlight you’re a million miles away
Every ounce of energy you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body, like the music that you play
Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes of the amplifiers ringin’ in your head
You smoke the day’s last cigarette, rememberin’ what she said
What she said
Here I am, on the road again
There I am, up on the stage
There I go, turn the page
There I go, turn that page
There I go, yeah
There I go, yeah
There I go, yeah
Here I go, yeah
There I go
There I go
And I’m gone
