You should have seen it coming But it happened way too fast Now you're right back where you started And your future is your past You tried to move a mountain It's like whistling in the breeze You racked your brain for answers And then wound up on your knees It begins at the moment you're born Just like chasing a king with a pawn It's like taking the bull by the horns But I'll try again today Yes, I'll try again today Like a game of Snakes & Ladders Or castles in the sand Just when you think you've got it It slips right through your hands You can try and move a mountain But it's best to walk around If you flow with the river It will never drag you down It begins at the moment you're born Just like chasing a King with a pawn It's like taking the bull by the horns But I'll try again today Yes, I'll try again today
