lyrics

I’m driving down the avenue of time
Same as everybody else here
The world is stored here in my mind
That’s why it’s so unclear

Whisk away these winter blues
Drift away on a summer cruise

Could it be that this is all about me
I go slow and now the world is in tow
What a relief that I can take my time
You need your rest and I need mine

I took a long time to prepare
But you jumped straight in
I didn’t have a minute to spare
While you’ve been adulting

Whisk me up like a fallen leaf
Drift away my disbelief

I’ve done my time in the playground of youth
Wasn’t a crime to have had as much fun as I did
It blows my mind that you and your baby are grown ups
Next stage of life has finally come to my house

Whisk away these stormy clouds
Drift away all my doubts

Could it be that this is all about me
I go slow and now the world is in tow
What a relief that I can take my time
You need your rest and I need mine
You need your rest and I need mine
You need your rest and I need mine
