(A. Scott/Sloan)

|
Time may flow over realizing goals that no one knows
|
And my friends - They'd never admit it though
|
Because they can block it out and continue to roll on
|
But me - I know
|
That everything's about to blow away
|
For real this time and no one's watching
|
|
All of my life I've dreamed about it
|
And now that it's gone I can't do without it
|
All of my life I've stood behind it
|
Like trying to hide The Great Wall of China
|
|
Flying above Heathrow
|
Never dreaming of the time or my dwindling cash flow
|
And I know - I never said
|
That a European climb isn't starving my ego
|
One thing - I know
|
Is that everything's about to blow away
|
For real this time and no one's watching
|
|
All of this time I'm wasting on it
|
Preparing to see what the others think of it
|
Keeping in mind I'm still above it
|
But not very high because I'm only hovering
|
|
All of my life I've stood behind it
|
Like trying to hide The Great Wall
|
