now this life is a wonderful thing
see the world, go a million miles
faces come and go like the tide
on a summer day, or a lonely night
but everyone is telling you
what to do with your life
just escape and breathe free
daydream of a girl I used to know
so many memories have slipped away
thinking a million thoughts an hour
waiting for the waves to take me away
they say somewhere is a path that's marked out just for you
well I hope someday our paths will cross
when I lie awake at night, I still see only you
see the world, go a million miles
faces come and go like the tide
on a summer day, or a lonely night
but everyone is telling you
what to do with your life
just escape and breathe free
daydream of a girl I used to know
so many memories have slipped away
thinking a million thoughts an hour
waiting for the waves to take me away
they say somewhere is a path that's marked out just for you
well I hope someday our paths will cross
when I lie awake at night, I still see only you
