[Verse 1]
Tell me, mother, can you see
Lately what's come over me?
All I know is that suddenly
I’ve become bad company
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, where did he go?
Your wide-eyed son
I gave 'em all I got and now
I'm the lonely one
[Chorus]
I guess it goes to show
Those streets of gold will leave you cold
And all I’ve sold
Is the same old tune
Yes, it goes to show
These words I write are to let you know
That I won't be home
Any time soon
[Verse 2]
Lucas Jones is lost at sеa
Would someone send him homе to me?
Others say he never quit
Just caught a cold and called in sick
[Pre-Chorus]
As miracles go
He never asked for much
Gave 'em all he got and now
Now he's out of touch
[Chorus]
I guess it goes to show
Those streets of gold will leave you cold
And all I've sold
Is the same old tune
Yes, it goes to show
These words I write are to let you know
That I won't be home
Any time soon
[Post-Chorus]
Any time soon
Any time soon
[Bridge]
When I see you again (Any time, any time)
When I see you again (Any time, any time)
Mmm, and again (Any time, any time)
[Chorus]
I guess it goes to show
These streets of gold will leave you cold
And all I've sold
Is the same old tune
Yes, it goes to show
These words I write are to let you know
That I won't be home
Any time soon
[Outro]
Any time
Any time soon
