Another circle around the sun
And I guess that I've had some fun
A couple of laughs
And a couple of cries too
Still ain't sure what matters most
I still ain't sure I believe in ghosts
But I sure ain't sure that
I know what to do
I felt so old since I was young
Just a kid when I walked among
All the thoughts that
Make a boy a man
The worlds weight on my shoulders
When I wasn't any older
Than the days when growing up
Had just began
But life doesn't come with a manual or instructions
No one can ever tell you what to do
And if you think too long you'll turn around
And it's all gone time never slows
So it goes
Spend all our time searching for
The answers to the questions
That most of the time
Can't be answered at all
Sweating about tomorrow
While we're fretting over yesterday
Afraid to jump because
We're worried about the fall
Meanwhile all the moments
That make up all the stories
That are really all that's left
When it's all gone
Are passing without asking
Where they're going
And there's no knowing if
Any of it's right or if it's wrong
But life doesn't come with a manual or instructions
No one can ever tell you what to do
And if you think too long you'll turn around
And it's all gone time never slows
So it goes
Some days my whole world is tossed
Due to devastating loss
And others due to joy
I've never know
Seems that one thing breeds the next
And I don't think I've been so perplexed
As trying to figure how
To be alone
Highs and lows are the way it goes
Where it ends nobody knows
Most can't even say
Where it began
Lessons learned and bridges burned
Are the way that all our stripes are earned
Are what ensures that
Everybody wins
Life doesn't come with a manual or instructions
No one can ever tell you what to do
And if you think too long you'll turn around
And it's all gone time never slows
So it goes
Time never slows
So it goes
