The Lifestyle That Got Away |
It’s the lifestyle that got away, slipped right through my hands that day |
The moon came up, the light came through the window of my old bedroom |
While my parents were asleep |
I imagined every way I could go with the blankets bunched at my feet |
How a million models will present themselves with everyone you meet |
I picked one, I couldn’t resist, it blazed upon my writing desk |
A lifetime reflected there, in the glass from the ol' state fair |
In the basket of my seat |
And I’ve never been so loaded with life as I was in that moonlight |
The reasoning sure, the future secure, and everything in sight |
It’s the lifestyle that got away, it slipped right through my hands that day |
When I think what might have been, it frightens me to sleep again |
I got the outcome on repeat |
I remember it well, the way it felt when the options wouldn’t quit |
Now I watch them going, old men in clothes that someday might have fit |
