Boy ain't it somethin' When you're green behind the ears Your hands are free and you can't yet see The weight of all your years The world is just an oyster And it's working on a pearl And if time flows like the river Then I'm a puddle standing still This road has been long Hell who ain't got a past Those things I wish had left me behind Sometimes you just lose track I've been around enough to know What's gone ain't coming back So I live with my demons But I ain't running from the reason A million miles away From the boy of yesterday Not quite the man he thought he'd be Sittin' here old and grey Life has a funny way Of letting you take the lead If you don't know where you goin' You end where you don't wanna be This road has been long Hell who ain't got a past Those things I wish had left me behind Sometimes you just lose track I've been around enough to know What's gone ain't coming back So I live with my demons But I ain't running from the reason Maybe it's never too late To dig down deep and find A child-like faith With eyes on today This road has been long But hell who ain't got a past Those things I wish had left me behind Sometimes you just lose track I've been around enough to know What's gone ain't coming back So I live with my demons But I ain't running from the reason
