BACK OF MY MIND

I woke up to my world this morning Took a long look in the looking glass Last night I guess I had one or too many Somebody tried to tell me I had no class Whatever happened to me Maybe I've been living on lies Never really had a dream come true Then again I guess I never really tried Now the years all slip away (slip away) And things are like they're gonna stay (gonna stay) All the roads I didn't take are just One more thing in the back of my mind Taking space and time Wish I'd finished that book I never started Maybe that's the story of my life Should've learned to play that saxophone So I could tell my song to the streetlight Shouldn't have been so stuck on my own Could have had a wife and a child Should've made that house a home I don't know why my life is so wild Now the years all slip away (slip away) And things are like they're gonna stay (gonna stay) All the chances I didn't take are just One more thing in the back of my mind Taking space and time One more thing in the back of my mind So I'm thinking about a walk in the sunlight I've got to get my shadow behind me Try and make some sense of it all With my feet on the ground and my heart still free As the years will slip away (slip away) I'll let the cards fall where they may (where they may) And all the roads I didn't take will be just One more thing in the back of my mind As the years will slip away (slip away) And the cards fall as they may (as they may) All the chances I didn't take will be just One more thing in the back of my mind Taking space and time One more thing in the back of my mind One more thing in the back of my mind
