You lead me on the path Keep showing me the way I feel a little lost A little strange today I think I'll take a hold Of whatever comes my way Then we'll see what happens Take it day by day I thought I had it all I had it all worked out Just what my future held That there would be no doubt But then the card came up And I took another turn But I don't know if it's Fulfillment that I yearn Tell me what you can hear And then tell me what you see Everybody has a different way To view the world I would like you to know When you see the simple things To appreciate this life It's not too late to learn Don't want to be here Somewhere I'd rather be But when I get there I might find it's not for me Tell me what you can hear And then tell me what you see Everybody has a different way To view the world I would like you to know When you see the simple things To appreciate this life It's not too late to learn Tell me what you can hear And then tell me what you see Everybody has a different way to view the world I would like you to know When you see the simple things To appreciate this life It's not too late to learn Don't wanna be here Somewhere I'd rather be But when I get there I might find it's not for me Don't know what I want Or where I want to be I'm feeling more confused The more the days go by
