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 What ever 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  And things are like they're 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've 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  And things are like they're 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  I'll let the cards fall 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  And the cards fall 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
