Paroles

[Verse 1]
One, two, three
[Verse 2]
I found boxes of first CDs
Tryin' to get my office clean
Took ten years of folks givin' them to me
Till I sat down and I saw
[Verse 3]
Hesitant poses and torn up jeans
In cover photos friends took for free
For the six minute songs and all their lifelong dreams
The world turned down
[Verse 4]
They're just dreamin' of some life out on the road, oh
And all I dream about's the day that I'll be home
I'd long forgotten how it feels to chase a dream
Thank God for boxes of first CDs, yeah
[Verse 5]
On through this Rolodex of railroad tracks and fresh cut hair
I see Joy who won some Grammys and is now a millionaire
Looks different now than she does right there
But that's how it goes
[Verse 6]
As for the rest, I bet they're teachers or pastors now
Pictured in jackets girlfriends picked out
All their hometowns turned these up, all the labels turned them down
And never wrote, whoa
[Verse 7]
They're just dreamin' of some life out on the road, oh
All I dream about's the day that I'll be home
I guess I forgot the way it feels to chase a dream
Thank God for boxes of first CDs, yeah
[Verse 8]
A thrift-store jacket and ten less pounds
Lookin' like a fool in some big field with my bare feet on the ground
Bad song titles and worse drum sounds, I didn't know
[Verse 9]
That all my dreams would come true out here on the road
I never dreamed that I could call this life my own
Thought I'd forgotten how it feels to chase a dream
And thank God for how it feels to chase a dream
And thank God for boxes of first CDs, yeah
