Lyrics

COLEEN
Verse 1:
I was a singer in school, I was a musical fool,
& I loved to Rock & Roll all day,
And I would play my guitar in any nightclub or bar,
That would let me do a gig in L.A..

‘Round the age of nineteen, tryin’ to keep my act clean,
Lookin’ for a big time break,
Came across a lady, she thought she'd try to save me,
One woman Billy Graham Crusade.

Chorus:
Coleen, Coleen, where would I be without you?
Coleen, Coleen, everything you told me was true.

Verse 2:
Well she listened to my songs and it didn't take her long,
before she could see in my heart.
I was a lonely boy, I was a man annoyed,
I was LA’s biggest unknown star.

Cryin’ from my heart out, leaving her with no doubt,
The miserable shape I was in.
So, starting from the Scripture, she drew for me a picture,
Showing me I needed a friend.

Chorus:
Coleen, Coleen, where would I be without you?
Coleen, Coleen, everything you told me was true.

Bridge:
I got wise, I got wise. I never stopped to analyze,
What I was doing or what I’d become,
How long I could keep running from Love.

Verse 3:
I was a singer in school, I was a musical fool,
I loved to Rock & Roll all day,
And then I came across a lady, she thought she d try to save me,
One woman Billy Graham Crusade.

Chorus:
Coleen, Coleen, where would I be without you?
Coleen, Coleen, everything you told me was true.
