Thought I might get a rocket ride When I was a child But it was a lie That I told myself when I needed something good
At 17 had a better dream Now I'm 33 and it isn't me But I'd think of something better if I could
All my friends and lovers Will leave me behind And I'm still looking for a girl One way or another I'm just hoping to find a way A way to put my feet out in the world
Caught some grief from a falling leaf As she tumbled to the dirty ground And said I should have put her back there if I could
Well everyone needs a better day And I'm trying to find me a better way To get through the things I do and the things I should
All my friends and lovers Will leave me alone To try to have a little fun One way or another I just wish I had known To go out walking in the sun To find out if you were the one
Do you wanna come a little closer now [? ] Can you see her, waiting there Can you see her, she's almost there Can you see her, waiting there for someone like me
Well all you want is a beauty queen But not a superstar But every body's dream machine All you want is a place to lay your head You go to sleep dreamin' how you would Be a different kind if you thought you could But you come awake the way you are instead
All my friends and lovers They shine like the sun Well I just turn and walk away One way or another I'm not comin' undone I'm just waiting for the day
