Constant dreams and aspirations
Tug on my sleeve like a child in need of attention
They're not hard to reach when life's a vacation
But there's not much ease after you leave a house of detention
I want to be a guy who's thorough and have a home in every borough
And impress strangers when I get on the train
Well I can't touch the sky but it still reaches my eye
So not everything's in vain
But all I know is that it takes a lot of time
And I can't rest until I make it mine
I've been told that better is just a point of view
But all my best is just a pair of eyes a longing shade of blue
When I was younger I went and saw the mountains
I thought the heat and the way they lived was so romantic
It was a hell of a summer despite all the shouting
It took me years to realize that things didn't work out the way they planned it
Once I wanted people to cry, they'd wipe a single tear from their eye
All because of something beautiful I'd say
Well it's been some years and I'm all done with tears
So sit on down next to me and I'll help you on your way
But all I know is that it takes a lot of time
And I can't rest until I make it mine
I've been told that better is just a point of view
But all my best is just a pair of eyes a longing shade of blue
