The road ain′t gettin' shorter

And I think the weed is gettin′ stronger

And I'm tryin' not to speak

To no one who don′t care

I′m spinnin' around in a whirlpool of letters

That run in a circle and try to break free in my mind

And I know I′m still young

But I can only get older

And I know that sometimes

I hurt you and I'm gone

Well it′s a story as old as the fire that brought us together

You think that we'd learn but you still remain

In the back of my mind

Eatin′ up all my time

Hangin' weightless in the sky

Like an angel with no place to fly

Everyday I get stoned

I simply try to write a song

The road is like a river

That sings when I'm alone

I′m sittin′ beside a window of light

That floods in my eyes and keeps me from finding mine

If I stayed home

I'd only wish I was gone

Wantin′ you with me

But knowin' that you can′t come

You've seen all the charms of this crazy old life

And you′d just as soon leave 'em behind as you'd never leave me

In the back of my mind

Eatin′ up all my time

Hangin′ weightless in the sky

Like an angel with no place to fly

Lookin' for some peace of mind

Like an angel with no place to fly
