lyrics

When I was young I never had all too much confidence in
What I thought that I would do
And now today, I have to say, and with all honesty,
I still don't have a clue

So time went by, was I too shy to get around to all the
Things that I wanted to do?
And standing here this time of year, at least I truly can say
That I'm here with you

As time moves on and I write songs which contemplate all of the
Things that I'd rather not see
I still don't know which way to go,
But maybe that's just the way things are meant to be

You know that I am gonna try to make the difference that I
Just couldn't make before
And if at all, within these walls, these empty halls,
I think I might just find a door

And when I look at you I know,
Though I'm here on this road,
I'm walking with you

And when I look into your eyes,
Maybe I should be surprised?
Your soul's not on view

I ain't got nothin' to doin' now,
I ain't got nowhere to bein' now
But that ain't worryin' me,
'cause honey I don't feel blue

Ain't no-one wantin' to see me now,
Ain't no-one wantin' to be me now
But that ain't worryin' me,
'cause honey, I still got you

So here we are, we've got this far, and yet there still is quite a
Way that we've yet to go
Where that might be, we'll only see,
If our so fragile walkway can bear the load

Our minds may play by night, by day,
In caverns far beyond that which we really know,
But while they do I'll be with you,
And then at least we can say that we made it through
