Don't know what time it is, I've been up for way too long
|
and I'm too tired to sleep
|
I call my mother on the phone, she wasn't home,
|
and now I'm wondering the street
|
I've been a fool, I've been cruel to myself
|
I've been hanging onto nothing
|
when nothing could be worse than hanging on
|
And something tells me there must be
|
something better than all this
|
|
I've fallen many times in love and every time
|
it's been with the wrong man
|
Still I'm out there living one day at a time
|
and doing the best I can
|
Cuz we've all made mistakes
|
that seem to lead us astray
|
But every time they helped to get us where we are today
|
And that's a good a place as any
|
and it's probably where we're best off anyway
|
|
It's a long and rugged road
|
and we don't now where it's headed
|
But we know it's going to get us where we're going
|
And when we find what we're looking for
|
we'll drop these bags and search no more
|
'Cuz it's going to feel like heaven when we're home
|
It's going to feel like heaven when we're home
|
|
There's no such thing as perfect,
|
and if there is we'll fnd it when we're good and dead
|
Trust me I've been looking
|
bu tonight I think I'll go and take a bath instead
|
And then maybe I'll walk a while
|
and feel the earth beneath me
|
They say if you stop looking
|
it doesn't matter if you find it
|
And whose to say that even if I did
|
it's what I'm really looking for
|
|
It's a long and rugged road
|
and we don't now where it's headed
|
But we know it's going to get us where we're going
|
And when we find what we're looking for
|
we'll drop these bags and search no more
|
'Cuz it's going to feel like heaven when we're home
|
