Lyrics
"37 trips around the sun"
when i was a kid i had something i wanted to give to the world
i don't feel like giving anymore
it used to be i felt i had something to say
well not today
i don't feel like saying anything
all i want is something to give
and all i want is something to say
i wanted to help save the globe
and now i just feel like being left alone
all i want is something to change
and all i want is something i can save
a fire used to burn down inside
but now i have to blow the sparks to keep them alive
oh back in the day i had something i wanted to teach
well i knew everything
now i don't know anything
i remember when my head was filled with dreams of creating things that the world had never seen
all i want is something to dream
and all i want is something i can teach
i used to see the shine in so many things
well now all those things just need a little polishing
well all i want is something to create
and all i want is something i can share
i used to care so hard that it hurt
but scars always fade and now it's time to get back to work
all i want is something to feel
and all i want is something i can sing
well all things will keep on moving right along
so now i feel the time is always right to sing another song
