Used to think it would all make sense, one day...
Stretch and strive and keep the drive, you say...
Used to think growing up would be cool
You'd get there one day, that's the rule
But where is there? And what happens then?
That day...
Three steps forward and two steps back
I've just got to try
Three steps forward and two steps back
Til the day that I die
Now it seems like it never ends, go on...
Lesson learned, then do it again, be strong...
Now it seems that the more that I learn
Another corner around every turn
The path is the point and it's what you earn
Lifelong...
Three steps forward and two steps back
I've just got to try
Three steps forward and two steps back
Til the day that I die
And at the end of my time on earth
Weighing and assessing my worth
It'll all seem just a blink of the eye
One long, sweet, melancholy good-bye
Three steps forward and two steps back
I've just got to try
Three steps forward and two steps back
Til the day that I die
I'm takin'
Three steps forward and two steps back
I've just got to try
Three steps forward and two steps back
Til the day that I die
