If I go walking past the town signs, or further on down the highway
There'll be something waiting for me, or am I fooling myself again?
You know I left this all behind, long before you came across my mind
Nothing kept me from leaving that day, but that day was nothing like today
I fell on my knees then, I prayed that change would spare me
That I could stay, oh that I could stay
The same old way
The times are flying right before me, it's not like before when I was blind
I remember seeing only the colors of the beautiful western skies
But now things are much deeper, it makes the darks much darker
But the lights shine brighter, on your beautiful face
I fell on my knees then, I prayed that change would spare me
That I could stay, oh that I could stay
The same old way
The colors turn and turn back again
There's always something to believe in
But that's not what you're searching for
I know it's something more hidden
And you could spend your life waiting around
Or you could finally up and leave this town
But there's something just follows you
No matter which road you go down
I fell on my knees then, I prayed that change would spare me

That I could stay, oh that I could stay
The same old way
If I go walking past the town signs
Or further on down the highway
There'll be something waiting for me
Or am I fooling myself again?
You know I left this all behind
Long before you came across my mind
Nothing kept me from leaving that day
But that day was nothing like today
I fell on my knees then, I prayed that change would spare me
That I could stay
Oh that I could stay
I fell on my knees then, I prayed that change would spare me
That I could stay
Oh that I could stay
The same old way
I fell on my knees then I prayed that change would spare me
That I could stay
Oh that I could stay
That I could stay
