Years grow shorter, not longer,
|
the more you've been on your own.
|
Feelin's for movin' grow stronger'
|
so you wonder why you ever go home,
|
wonder why you ever go home.
|
|
People are movin' so quickly.
|
Humor's in need of repair.
|
Same occupations and same obligations,
|
they've really got nothing to share,
|
like drivin' around with no spare.
|
|
River gets deeper not shallow,
|
the further you move down the stream.
|
Wonderin' if I can keep her as I
|
race to keep up with my dreams.
|
How they shine and glitter and gleam.
