On a cold night,in a hotel,in New Orleans
And somehow somewhere we lost sight in our search
For that pot of gold
And all that happend I don't understand
Could somebody here,someone please explain to me
Because i'm feelin' so damn deceived
And I can't run,can't hide,can't get nothing right,lately
Theatre of my soul,Play on child...

Ashes to ashes,light the good lord lays us down
Dust to dust...Oh no

The time has come to lay to rest the years
All the years it took this heart to trust

Maybe to much to soon,I just couldn't get my head on straight
All that worry,just wasted time
And now it's much to late to save it

Long forgotten midnight dancer plays her final role
The curtain falls and I'm still standing
And the theatre of my soul you left in vain
Could someone please explain,and I said...

I know that nothing's the same
Riding blind on the winds of change
But in my head that scene keeps on playing

Long forgotten midnight dancer plays her final role...
Oh yes she does

Can't run,Can't hide,Can't get nothing right ,Lately

The curtain falls and I'm still standing in the theatre of my soul

Can't run,Can't hide,Can't get nothing right,Lately

When,time it just keeps on passing,I got to let it go
Let it roll,Let it rol,Let it roll

Can't run,Can't hide,Can't get nothing right,Lately

I keep searching for those long lost answers
In the theatre of my soul

Theatre of my soul
