"Sometimes" lyrics - JOHN ILLSLEY

Well, sometimes you can't tell east from west
Sometimes you run without the rest
Just when you think that luck is best
You face the [?] test

And sometimes the king will lose it's throne
Sometimes the queen use to be alone
Just when his loveful heart is grown
Her heart is sinking like a stone

[Chorus 1/2:]
Sometimes the rain comes falling down
Like the tears of a clown

Well, sometimes there's too many shades of gray
Looks to me like a dangerous game to play
Don't get tired upon a way
If you overrun your stay

[Chorus:]
Sometimes the rain comes falling down
Like the tears of a clown
Sometimes your feet don't touch the ground
On life's merry-go-round

[Interlude]

Well, sometimes you can dance with magic groove
Then again your feet refuse to move
Could be country, could be the blues
Could be a headline in the news

And sometimes your life can hit you hard
You find no winners on the court
Some days when the riding gets too hot
You need the sweepings of the part

[Chorus 2x]
