Lyrics
What Was the Point
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey/California
(v1)
I’ve run, walked and crawled
Down many, many roads
I answered each and every call
Carried the heaviest loads
(v2)
I’ve tasted love and hate
One was warm and sweet
The other a bitter taste
With a side of deceit
(chorus)
Reviewing stops along the way
There is really not much to say
I try to measure what was gained
Realizing it was only heartache and pain
Now I sit alone in a sleazy joint
Trying to understand
What was the point
(v3)
I chased dreams others wouldn’t
Where life’s lessons were learned
I trusted some people I shouldn’t
Only to end up getting burned
(bridge)
For some their life can be blessed
Others can be troubled and stressed
For some of us, it’s just plain pointless
(chorus)
Reviewing stops along the way
There is really not much to say
I try to measure what was gained
Realizing it was only heartache and pain
Now I sit alone in a sleazy joint
Trying to understand
What was the point
