On the Way to Me

I’m on my way
Though I guess one day I’ll wake
And find it’s just another false alarm
Somebody told me once
You can be whatever you want to be
But it don’t come free
I’m on my way
Though I don’t know where I’m going
I wish I’d gone there yesterday
Cold wind’s blowing at my back
But I can’t stay
Don’t you see?
It’s where I need to be
I’m on my way to me, but I can’t see
My future for the past
If I’d done what you had asked
I could have been there in a flash
I’m on my way back home, but I don’t know
Tomorrow from today
I’m gonna find my way
Find my way
I don’t know who
But there’s a stranger with my face
Who knows the proper things to do
She smiles in all the right places
She runs in all the best races
I do too, but not for you
I’m on the way
And though the stranger bears my name
She just can’t sing the songs I play
But there’s no shame in learning
Halfway there, you want to be turning
Back a while — gonna turn back that dial
I’m on my way to me, but I can’t see
My future for the past
If I’d done what you had asked
I could have been there in a flash
I’m on my way back home
But I don’t know tomorrow from today
I’m gonna find my way — find my way
Find my way back home
