| Lyrics: | Chris DeGarmo, Geoff Tate)
Behind my eyes
I keep my truth from you.
No one
enters
this secret place,
the barrier only I embrace.
Time is fleeting now
they
say.
Time to look inside
and face . . . the change.
Dig down deep
to find
the man I thought I was.
A dog on the treadmill panting,
the master pulls the leash,
laughing.
Now I can't remember why
I needed to run, needed to try so hard.
One
more time around
is all I ask for now,
a star to steer by, wind to
take me home
again.
"Work hard in life boy,
there's paradise in the end."
Year after year we
struggle to gain
the happiness our parents never claimed.
They told us all we had to
do
was do what we're told, buy what was sold,
"Invest in gold, and never get
old."
One more time around
is all I ask for now,
a star to steer by, wind
to
take me home again |
