White Town - Going Nowhere Somehow lyrics

Take a look at where you're going Do you know where you come from? Seems like you've spent your life just searching, In the length of just one song But you know you're going nowhere Like so many of your age This has gone on far too long now To be dismissed as another phase Well you can turn the clock back Pretend that you're still young and unaware. But everyone that you lack weighs upon your mind, When she's not there I don't want to break your heart, I don't want to let you down It's just that I always thought Life would be more than just Going nowhere somehow. Now your friends are disappearing They're getting scarcer day by day You've only got yourself to blame for that, You always wanted things that way Cos it's easier being lonely Than being let down again and again When you're standing on edge of things, It means you never have to pretend. Well you can turn the clock back Pretend that you're still young and unaware. But everyone that you lack weighs upon your mind, When she's not there I don't want to break your heart I don't want to let you down It's just that I always thought Life would be more than just Going nowhere somehow.
