SIDE-BY-SIDE

1.I’ve grown bored seeking new things all the time,
2.But when I try chasing only one,
3.I realize how difficult it is.
4.I thought it was all how you chose to view things,
5.But that’s not right; it can’t be.
6.It’s just that reality is always a step ahead of my imagination,
7.And my decisions are still 1mm too short.8.
9.I’m being carried along on the last train home,
10.Hoping to go far away…
11.Ah Ah Ah, the long way around,
12.Ah Ah Ah, chasing a dream.
13.No matter how much time passes, it’s still hard,
14.And nothing feels quite right.
15.Ah Ah Ah, nothing changes,
16.And that’s fine, that’s fine… no it’s not!
17.I just can’t communicate this feeling,
18.And at this rate I’ll have to…
19.Ah Ah Ah, start all over,
20.Ah Ah Ah, again and again.
21.I get closer and closer each time,
22.Since there’s only one track…
23.Ah Ah Ah, it’s about time,
24.Ah Ah Ah, I head home.25.
26.If I look at my situation from afar,
27.It seems so strange and interesting; full of possibility.
28.But when I’m standing right there, I can’t change a thing.
29.I’m told nothing happens from avoiding risk,
30.But that’s not right; it can’t be.
31.It’s just that reality is always a step ahead of my imagination,
32.And my decisions are still 1mm too short.33.

34.I’m being carried along on the last train home,
35.Hoping to go far away…
36.Ah Ah Ah, the long way around,
37.Ah Ah Ah, chasing a dream.
38.No matter how much time passes, it’s still hard,
39.And nothing feels quite right.
40.Ah Ah Ah, nothing changes,
41.And that’s fine, that’s fine… no it’s not!
42.I just can’t communicate this feeling,
43.And at this rate I’ll have to…
44.Ah Ah Ah, start all over,
45.Ah Ah Ah, again and again.
46.I get closer and closer each time,
47.Since there’s only one track…
48.Ah Ah Ah, it’s about time,
49.Ah Ah Ah, I head home.
