2.Already There
I look outside my window,
everything was blanketed in white.
The neighbors pushing cars,
Out from snow that fell on us last night.
I started thinking,
Bout the things we used to do when we were young.
Back when things were simple,
getting up was fun.
I couldn't care, cuz I'm already there.
I'm already there, and I'm ready there.
Turn around and face the clock,
I'd sit and watch, as time went hoppin' by.
I'm still growing up,
My friends are growing old before my eyes.
Count the stars above,
Wonder when the heavens will subside.
Knowing our two worlds,
Will someday just collide.
Just a boy who's young at heart,
His smile was a bit like yours today.
Had a wife, a kid, some strife,
Never had to go astray.
Happiness evolved,
Life was in full swing,
At 17, all the things he wanted,
were things he'd never seen.
It don't seem fair, cuz I'm already there.
I'm already there, and I'm ready there.
