Lyrics
waitin for this new city
to feel like home
just tryin to keep myself busy
tryin to find something of my own
and so I try, and try, and try
to let this emptiness subside
dollar bills and small change
just getting by day to day
searchin for something different
tryin to make it my own way
getting by on daydreams
could they be real or fantasy
welcome to this life I hear a voice singin out to me
it's only temporary don't you see
so hope for what you will and make it out alright
and follow your dreams
follow your dreams
look around it's getting better
and things all start to make sense
and this life is meant for living
not worryin bout pennies and cents
Still gettin by on my daydreams
could they be real or fantasy
Welcome to this life I hear a voice singin out to me
it's only temporary can't you see
so worried cause I can feel the past sneaking up on me
I'll still follow my dreams
follow your dreams
