"Overnight Sensation" lyrics - LARRY SANTOS

I was trying so hard to make it on the road
There's a travelling van
Living out in some cases

In motel across the land
But all I did was survive
With a dream that can't be alive
Anything a fortune thing

I'm an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making
Just an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making
They'll never know the road I had to go
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, no

I had so many disappointments
Agents robbed me blind
I guess it wouldn't be easier
Leaving all those thoughts behind
The nights going insane
Would stab and hung the pains
Playing crummy bars, sleeping in cars

I'm an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making
Just an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making
They'll never know the road I had to go
Whoa, whoa, whoa, no

I had some friends
They all had children at home
Then the most of my life I've been alone
'Cause music spends, spends my whole life
Spend my soul
It's been everything to me
The very heart of me

But I'm an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making
Just an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making
They'll never know the road I had to go

No, they'll never know the road I had to go

'Cause I'm an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making
Just an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making

Just an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making
Yeah, an overnight sensation
It's been 10 years in the making
