Here I'm sitting in the shade
With nothing to hold on to
The warm breeze whistling in the wires
Remembering towns I passed through
Back when the distant music played
And dreams were gonna come true
Before all that has transpired
Before I paid my dues
I've got no place to be and I'm not making any plans
It's been a long time since I came this close to feeling alright
♪
Weathered fronts with flaking paint
Signs not speaking like they used to
Free from the pull of past desires
I watch the shadows of the clouds move
In a lazy stillness that contains
Every summer of a lost youth
And all the laughing and the crying
And everything I thought I knew
I've got no place to be and I'm not making any plans
It's been a long time since I came this close to feeling alright
