THE RIGHT TRACK

too long in this town, too long in shadow
roads lead out, where the hell do they go?
this might be someone's idea of good old days
not mine
i'm parting ways
   
   i'm leaving
   some might think on a wing and a prayer
   but there's got to be peace
   between here and somewhere
   sun on my face, wind at my back
   i'm finally... on the right track

day by day, time gets shorter
while my bucket list just runs over
some things age well like a fine old wine
but a spirit chained
will die in time (so...)
   
   i'm leaving
   some think on a wing and a prayer
   but there's got to be peace
   between here and somewhere
   sun on my face, wind at my back
   i'm finally... on the right track

friends say slow down don't go
but what the hell could they know
i got boots older than most of them
and I ain't leaving on a whim
   
    i'm leaving
   some might think on a wing and a prayer
   but there's got to be peace
   between here and somewhere
   sun on my face, wind at my back
    i'm finally... on the right track
