Living in the City
December 28, 2005
I may be living in the city
But my blood runs close to home
At nineteen I packed my bags
For I knew it was in my soul to roam
Now I’ve got that chance in my hand
To conquer those dreams on my own
So why can’t someone tell me why I feel so alone
I remember a child not long ago Who had a million dreams He knew he could accomplish them all If that’s what he desired But one stood out from the rest Like black coals in the snow And no dream is as powerful As the dream for rock n roll
Oh to be that young again To not have a care in the world To have your life all planned out Untouched by reality Overflowing with confidence Feeling closer every day Until you take that first step And see the price you have to pay
With reality standing in your way…
I remember a child not long ago Who had a million dreams He knew he could accomplish them all If that’s what he desired But one stood out from the rest Like black coals in the snow And no dream is as powerful As the dream for rock n roll
Oh to be that young again To not have a care in the world To have your life all planned out Untouched by reality Overflowing with confidence Feeling closer every day Until you take that first step And see the price you have to pay
With reality standing in your way…
