Now And Then |
Now and then |
I must admit I wonder if I had the chance |
To vanquish foes with nothing more than just a glance |
How perfect every single day would be |
To never wait in driving rain |
For the bus that never came |
Not to be the one to blame |
For anybody else’s misery |
Now and then |
I contemplate a different way around this day |
With nothing more than simple words, so I can say |
I’m quite content and happy being me |
Walking tall with peace of mind |
To leave no childhood dreams behind |
Arriving home to always find |
Things just as I know they ought to be |
Now and then |
I must admit I wonder if I had the chance |
To vanquish foes with nothing more than just a glance |
How perfect every single day would be |
To never wait in driving rain |
For the bus that never came |
Not to be the one to blame |
For anybody else’s misery |
Now and then |
I wake up, when it hits me like a ton of bricks |
I realise it’s me who has to take the licks |
No angels up there looking after me |
No rainbow with a pot of gold |
No cloak to shield me from the cold |
No pill to stop me growing old |
Dreams fading into stark reality |
