“When some sad old dream reminds you
How the endless road unwinds you While you see a chance Take it Find romance Fake it Because it's all on you Don't you know by now No one gives you anything And don't you wonder How you keep on moving One more day Your way Go your way When there's no one left to leave you Even you don't quite believe you That's when nothing can deceive you” - Steve Winwood He said it best IMO |
