Lyrics
I'm watching her take for granted the affections of another Bored with the easy things and not a plan for future endeavors She can behave this way because she assumes that it lasts forever Hope she soaks up enough so she knows it's a feeling she'll always remember I've been there I've been there It's not love she lacks She's just gone off track You reached the 30 mark and your life seems such a shamble A decade or less to succeed didn't seem to be the greatest gamble Not so impatient now and you assume that life is the trouble You through in your cards long ago when reality burst that bubble I've been there I've been there I see what you're looking at It's not bad - not bad as all that I've been there I've been there Too much life and little time It becomes a ruse - you say what's the use and stop trying No matter how awful it gets I think the worst will be over soon I'm one of the few people left who sees something there that shines all around you This is our year my friend Let's ignore impossibilities While others may harp on the past I think it's here and now for you and me I've been there I've been there It's not hope we lack - we just can't turn back I've been there I've been there It's not hope that we lack To dwell in the past You know it's not meant to last Don't turn back
