lyrics

I can hear those people talk’in about me
where I’m going and wh ere they think I’ve been
I wish they could live their lives with out me
cause my life sure’d be better without them

keep on talking in circles that never end
keep on riding those fences you never mend
put your faith in things you can’t defend


those who just sit back and wait for tomorrow
think they have a better point of view
but they will never get close to where their going
if their not willing to risk a step or two

so afraid of the things they never knew
so afraid of the things they’ll never do
whether life lets you down is up to you

I can find my way
on my own
but that’s not to say
I want to live alone

I can hear those people talking about me
as if I’d give a damn ‘bout what they say
I will never give them a reason to dought me
I’ll look back on them and smile someday

sometimes it’s hard to say what you will find
when you say good bye to what’s behind
after all the past’s all in your mind
