Not long ago there was a time when everything
would blow my mind. Then I learn a bit more, it cancelled everything I learned before. I say hey (hey), I don't know what I'm doin'. I should have planned on my class reunion. I been workin' on my vision and clarity. This is how it was meant for me. Well anything is possible. Anything and everything Anything and everything Well anything is possible. Anything and everything Anything and everything is possible~ is possible to me. When I was nineteen I thought I'd seen everything I was gonna see. Then I see a bit more, it cancelled everything I seen bofore. I say hey (hey), I thought I knew it all. I'm settin' up for a hell of fall. writin' down my philosophy songs, there's one that still holds strong. Well anything is possible. Anything and everything Anything and everything Well anything is possible. Anything and everything Anything and everything is possible~ is possible to me. With every day that goes by the less and less I wonder why. Cause I seen 'em rise and I seen 'em fall. But I'll never claim to have seen it all. I say hey (hey), I ain't seen a thing you never know what tomorrow will bring I been workin' on my state of mind. Brace yourself for the ride. Cause anything is possible. Well anything is possible. Anything and everything Anything and everything Well anything is possible. Anything and everything Anything and everything is possible~ is possible ~is possible ~ is possible to me. to me~~ |

tommy stepped away
from the world for awhile he only left a picture of a seventh grade smile he got in between a mother's lost hope and a father's lost dream a head of ideas that don't mean anything tommy had a problem with being alone he spent everyday of his life on his own but there's no one to blame it's hard to keep friends when you keep moving away the cards and letters don't mean anything they don't mean anything when you go, you're gone and if you feel you can't go on you can always come home tommy stepped away from the world for awhile his first few steps, they felt like a mile they never could believe he said good-bye and they just watched him leave all the things he knew don't mean anything they don't mean anything and if you go too far you might never come back and I might go too far and I won't ever some back and when you go i'll wait for you and when you go i'll be there too |

He had a chocolate treat for every tear she cried Then she fell down by the hand of him As she fell down She said, "Here we go again." And, "It's not my fault this time." As if it ever was before He's got her where he wants In the palm of his hand He's effortless In the palm of his hand She's helpless, but She feels safe when he's around But she knows it won't be long (Until she sees this side of him again.)

In need of leading and you need to be my follow How we were that summer Instead you seem much older now Instead you treat me colder now Where's my friend, I think he's running away From all the things we've done Wanna get you back up here But you're already gone Heard about the others They're at home and being lifeless Forgot to read a magazine I guess my constitution's strong All Along I could be most anything if I could be the one |
