Lyrics
I took a walk
Down by the beach today
I was trying to figure out
This empty life of mine
when I came op on an image
of myself just sitten in the sun
and he said to me
With a smile
CHORUS:
Open road ahead of you
Nothing in your past
Set your sights on new ideas
Your life is running fast
The things you've learned
Are now past habits
Nothing ever really seams to last
Relax, don't settle into one thing
Life is long and should be enjoyed
Search for what you really want
And you'll be on a straighter road
Finally feeling good about your life
CHORUS:
CHORUS;
