When I was a boy
|
I'd get so annoyed
|
Whenever it was pouring rain
|
Standin' at the glass door
|
Starin' at the outside nose pressed against the pane
|
I told my momma
|
I don't wanna be stuck inside no more
|
Give me thunder and lightnin', somethin' excitin'
|
That's what I'm livin' for
|
|
There's a world out there and I wanna be in it
|
I got a life and I'm gonna live it
|
Don't tell me the sky's the limit
|
There's footprints on the moon
|
I wanna do my walkin' down the road less traveled
|
Sew my dreams where they won't unravel
|
If you play it safe you won't get nowhere
|
I can't stay in here when there's a world out there
|
|
I remember back in school
|
They thought I was a fool
|
For askin' Lizzy Walker to the dance
|
She was always with the captain of the football team
|
Nobody thought I even have a chance
|
But imagine my surprise
|
When she looked me in the eyes
|
And said I'll go with you instead
|
I knew we'd be together for the rest of forever
|
When Lizzy looked at me and said
|
Hey baby
|
|
There's a world out there and I wanna be in it
|
I got a life and I'm gonna live it
|
Don't tell me the sky's the limit
|
There's footprints on the moon
|
I wanna do my walkin' down the road less traveled
|
Sew my dreams where they won't unravel
|
If you play it safe you won't get nowhere
|
I can't stay in here when there's a world out there
|
|
I imagine when they land on a brand new planet
|
In some far off galaxy
|
Somebody in the rocket's gonna look out the window
|
Feeling just like Lizzy and me
|
|
There's a world out there and I wanna be in it
|
I got a life and I'm gonna live it
|
Don't tell me the sky's the limit
|
There's footprints on the moon
|
I wanna do my walkin' down the road less traveled
|
Sew my dreams where they won't unravel
|
If you play it safe you won't get nowhere
|
I can't stay in here when there's a world out there
|
|
If you play it safe you won't get nowhere
|
You can't stay in here when there's a world out there
|
|
(No, I just can't do it)
|
There's a world out there
|
(Don't even try and play it safe)
|
No, no, no
|
(You're not gonna get anywhere)
|
No, no, no
|
