This is my stomping ground, these are the roads I walk home.
Out here, where the streets unwind keeping the city lights on.
Leaving's not the same as being left behind.
I found my own path in life, passed up the suit and tie. I found a way
Of escaping the 9 to 5. But to judge you on your own life, that's not for me to say.
I've seen this happen before but I won't let it change me.
Do whatever works for you.
There's no substitute for staying true
To get you through the dark timed.
Trends and phases come and go.
Connect with a world you barely know -
Lord knows it'll open your eyes.
This is my stomping ground and one day I'll settle down, but not for a while.
Out here, where the streets unwind and lead me to peace of mind, away from the city lights.
Leaving's not the same as being left behind, but we turn new pages in our lives.
Do whatever works for you.
There's no substitute for staying true
To get you through the dark times.
Trends and phases come and go.
Connect with a world you barely know -
Lord knows it'll open your eyes,
Your eyes.
City lights bring me home, the streets upwind.
I found my own path to peace of mind.
It's not over yet, city lights bring me home.
The streets unwind and leaving's not the same
As being left behind.
These days, these days get tough,
But don't mistake love
For spoon fed lives, for spoon fed lives.
[x4]
Don't mistake love!
Don't mistake love!
Do whatever works for you.
