"The Connection" Lyrics

I stayed in town for a while
Watching cars pass me by
And I'm trying not to get too high
But then I realized

Is there only one direction
Is there only right from wrong
Got to make the right connection
On my own

I never said you would cry
But I lied, now I lied
Now he's crying just to get by
Just to find, find out why

There is only one direction
There is only right from wrong
Got to make the right connection
On their own

I stuck around for a while
Watch the grass getting high
And I try not to think for a while
But then I had to smile

'Cause there's only one direction
Is there only one way home
Got to make the right connection
On their own
