Turning Point
Tom Petty · Other Songs - Tom Petty
And walked from your door up to the county road
Oh yeah, what luck, the timings been rough on us
Right then, oh boy, we hit the turning point
Three or four years or more my life was on the floor
Blind faith, hangin' in hungry and tired of it
Oh yeah, better luck, it takin' over us
But right now, oh boy, we've hit the turning point
She's had to follow me up and down these empty streets
Whiskey on her breath tryin' to give the world a test
Oh yeah, better luck, it takin' over us
Right now, oh boy, we've hit the turning point
Yeah right now, oh boy, we've hit the turning point
Yeah right now, oh boy, we've hit the turning point
We've hit the turning point
