Always dreamt to be the first one But I kept falling down the stairs The turtle and the hare in some way Thought I would catch up in the end What happened much too often Waiting for the great escape Afraid for confrontation Afraid to get hurt again Always to nice a person and Ain't nothin' worth it sleepin' daily just to chase the afternoon Ooh no To live 's an awfully big adventure ooh I'm telling you Ooh yeah Cos everybody thinks goodbye Everybody thinks bye bye Now I'm still tryin' to make my point Though the world 's a crowded place I'm no more waiting in the corner I show them my real face I got more than I expected Gained more than I ever thought I can no more be neglected Cos I like what I do Hey man what's become of you Ain't nothin' worth it sleepin' daily just to chase the afternoon Ooh no To live 's an awfully big adventure ooh I'm telling you Ooh yeah Cos everybody thinks goodbye Everybody thinks bye bye Yes I like what I do Hey man what's become of you Ain't nothin' worth it sleepin' daily just to chase the afternoon Ooh no To live 's an awfully big adventure ooh I'm telling you Ooh yeah Cos everybody thinks goodbye Everybody thinks bye bye
