Somewhere Along The Way

Intro: From table manners to tunnel vision To typical farewells With the recklessness of men who believe in themselves When the world was ours and we made sure it pathed beneath our wills We were as …. as ancient as a soul of …… hills We were certain we could take this town by storm The wonder of sound and light seeking a form But somewhere along the way the dots did not all connect Potential became regret But somewhere along the way the dreams and the circumstance continue their torture dance Somewhere along the way She was my lullaby, personified My vision in the mist But her contacts were all promoters and unscattered therapists The 5 ams, the worried friends, the parting of her lips I needed to witness someone wrestle with What it means to just exist How her only plan in life was getting lost How she took me to the edge and made me watch But somewhere along the way the running had lost its fun It Happens to everyone somewhere along the way Her trail became to obscure but now was a signature She would talk about letting go I guess I didn’t understand give it over to the current That were there since time began But a long drive from el Paso to the pacific ocean cliffs I finally felt connected to the continental drift Somewhere along the way I started to smile again I don’t remember when Somewhere along the way Things will work out just fine You will see its true this time
