lyrics

The more I have, the more I think it’s gonna go
Sometimes life’s just too wonderful, you know
The more I learn, the more things sure get left out
That life is rich, there is no doubt

It’s this road you’re on
The future is foggy unknowns
And the past is memory bubbles

The more I love, the more I feel a sense of loss
For times gone by when there was no “us”
But time alone is time spent taking in
All these things of wonder to share again

It’s this road you’re on
But no-one ever asked you
If you didn’t mind
If it would be all right
To say goodbye
To your childhood
And move on

The more I drink and fall, the more I seem to miss
Hey, I blinked and now you’re all doctors
The sad poetry in the blinking of an eye
Hey, that’s all it takes to live and die

But in between there’s a girl I want to know
She might have eyes of fire and skin of snow
I walked my dog today past a door ajar
The warmth I felt wasn’t just my coat and scarf

It’s this road you’re on
But no-one ever asked you
If you didn’t mind
If it would be all right
To say hello
To new horizons
And new friends

The more I think about it, the more the truth’s in sight
You’re really quite alone when true happiness strikes
