about

Bonus Track from "Son of More Songs About Girls" recorded 1991.

lyrics

It's never been so hard to grow old as it is on a night like tonight
it's cold outside, are you feeling it too?
Too little done in too many years
Too many nights alone with my fears
It's later now, what am I gonna do?

Gotta get away a while
Nothing left to make me smile
I wonder why I stay
Nobody would ever know
Don't you ever want to go to someplace far away

Khyber Pass
We could dance like fools
Drink a bit and bend the rules
They won't notice us until we're gone

Never thought this could happen to me
Always pictured I'd be somehow better off
Might have something to share

Notihing happens and what if it did
I feel like I'm just a kid and Christmas came and went this year and I wasn't there

Gotta get away a while
Nothing left to make me smile
I wonder why I stay
Nobody would ever know
Don't you ever want to go to someplace far away

Khyber Pass
We could dance like fools
Drink a bit and bend the rules
They won't notice us until we're gone

I'm sure it's always the same anywhere you choose to go
But I've got to go away or I might never know, might never know

But there's
Nothing left to make me smile
Gotta get away a while
I wonder why I stay
Nobody would ever know
Don't you ever want to go to someplace far away

Khyber Pass
We could dance like fools
Drink a bit and bend the rules
They won't notice us until we're gone
