Now this life is a wonderful thing See the world, go a million miles Faces come and go like the tide On a summer day, or a lonely night But everyone is telling you What to do with your life Just escape and breathe free Daydream of a girl i used to know So many memories have slipped away Thinking a million thoughts an hour Waiting for the waves to take me away They say somewhere is a path that's marked out just for you Well i hope someday our paths will cross When i lie awake at night, i still see only you
