about
This song is about the relentless pursuit of a dream that always seems to be a little bit beyond one's reach.
lyrics
The world is spinning, and I'm dizzy staring at the stars
I left the pages in my schedule, but they're falling hard
Find me on your way out, I'll be right here
The world is spinning, and I'm dizzy staring at the stars
They don't seem so far
The sky is sunny, but the clouds are running in my head
I'm thinking maybe I would rather play the part instead
Don't know what to say now, I'll get my eyesight checked
But I can listen while I'm wishin', staring at the stars
They don't seem so far
They don't seem so far
I’m getting older and we feel a little colder
The world is trying to get us to trip, fall, rollover
But there is more to prove
These mountains, they can move
Sit tight, buckle up
We ‘bout to hit our groove
I'm closing chapters, looking backwards, and I'm making sense
I'm interested in all that flourishes from ignorance
Nothing in my way now, except for my own years
The world is spinning, and I'm dizzy staring at the stars
They don't seem so far
They don't seem so far
I’m getting older and we feel a little colder
The world is trying to get us to trip, fall, rollover
But there is more to prove
These mountains, they can move
Sit tight, buckle up
We ‘bout to hit our groove
I’m getting older and we feel a little colder
The world is trying to get us to trip, fall, rollover
But there is more to prove
These mountains, they can move
Sit tight, buckle up
We ‘bout to hit our groove
It’s hard to know what is real
Got to follow what you feel
Running out of gold
But have a pocketful of zeal
We keep the motor humming
Doesn’t matter what you steal
Just a couple music chefs
Trying to cook our next meal
Playing all these bars
Little stranger than mars
And accumulating scars
Driving hours in the car
The future is ours
I can tell by the stars
They don’t seem so far
They don't seem so far
