I'm on my way, but I'm gonna be late, it's the same story everyday For seven hours I'm trapped again, behind a desk and a screen to get paid I had so many dreams back then, it makes me wonder what I did wrong But when I thought about the things I've achieved, I grabbed a pen and I wrote this song I never be anything or any more than this I set my sights on the winning post and with the chorus I will reminisce I like the way that things never seem to go exactly how I wished when I was young 'Cause if they did, then I never would've did all the things that I've been 'n seen 'n done I know there's more and it's just outside my door on the tail of the ever setting sun And where it goes no one's ever gonna know til they get where they're going or they're gone Every now and then I wake up with a frown, and the sky will be far from blue I feel stuck in a rut sometimes, but I'm glad I keep on pushing through Without my friends I wouldn't know where to go, and I'd never ever know to be true
When I'm down I have to turn it around, 'cause that's the only thing that gets us through I think about all the plans I've made and if it's all not going well I think about it in a different way and then I've got myself a story to tell I like the way that things never seem to go exactly how I wished when I was young 'Cause if they did, then I never would've did all the things that I've been 'n seen 'n done I know there's more and it's just outside my door on the tail of the ever setting sun And where it goes no one's ever gonna know til they get where they're going or they're gone I like the way that things never seem to go exactly how I wished when I was young 'Cause if they did, then I never would've did all the things that I've been 'n seen 'n done I know there's more and it's just outside my door on the tail of the ever setting sun And where it goes no one's ever gonna know til they get where they're going or they're gone
