In vain

I'm gonna hit the road now, throw away my blues
Get back all that I lost when I couldn't choose
Oh, if I look back at my life

I think I'll buy a shack down by the river
Start a brand new life as a dream weaver
Oh, if I look back at my life

All the time that I spent staring at the wall
Searching a friend that was true after all
Waiting on somebody to just give me a call
And say that nothing was in vain

I blew away my chances a hundred times
But this time can be different, I just have to try
Oh, if I look back at my life

I often hear the echoes inside my head
Of all the times I've failed, but they won't come back
Oh, if I look back at my life

All the time that I spent staring at the wall
Searching a friend that was true after all
Waiting on somebody to just give me a call
And say that nothing was in vain
All the time that I spent staring at the wall
Searching a friend that was true after all
Waiting for somebody to just give me a call
And ask if all of it was in vain
