Trends And Phases

This is my stomping ground, these are the roads I walk home
Out here, where the streets unwind keeping the city lights on
Leaving's not the same as being left behind

I found my own path in life, passed up the suit and tie. I found a way
Of escaping the 9 to 5. But to judge you on your own life, that's not for me to say
I've seen this happen before but I won't let it change me

Do whatever works for you
There's no substitute for staying true
To get you through the dark timed
Trends and phases come and go
Connect with a world you barely know
Lord knows it'll open your eyes

This is my stomping ground and one day I'll settle down, but not for a while
Out here, where the streets unwind and lead me to peace of mind, away from the city lights
Leaving's not the same as being left behind, but we turn new pages in our lives

Do whatever works for you
There's no substitute for staying true
To get you through the dark times
Trends and phases come and go
Connect with a world you barely know
Lord knows it'll open your eyes
Your eyes

City lights bring me home, the streets upwind
I found my own path to peace of mind
It's not over yet, city lights bring me home
The streets unwind and leaving's not the same
As being left behind

These days, these days get tough
But don't mistake love
For spoon fed lives, for spoon fed lives

Don't mistake love!
Don't mistake love!

Do whatever works for you
There's no substitute for staying true
To get you through the dark times
Trends and phases come and go
Connect with a world you barely know
Lord knows it'll open your eyes
