I try to be everything to everyone in every way

I try to be everywhere with every answer, every day

But I'm spreading out so thin, my smile's caving in

Until I'm slightly less than nothing to myself

It's not a race you can win

Go for a place within your skin

Horizons get closer the lower you get

They're rising if only to help the sun set

Well, the moon is in her ball gown and we're waltzing into space

And the band'll still be playing when we finish up the race

Gonna take the longest road to the furthest place

Gonna take the lightest load at the slowest pace

My turtle taught us how we oughta steer

So maybe when we get there we're gonna be right here

We'll be right here

The roses need a sniff, the dog could use a pat

It isn't that much, but it's making a start

And I won't panic if I hang for a chat

I only want to march to the beat of my heart

I'm dizzy, I must have been chasing my tail

Too busy to notice my bread going stale

Well, I haven't got a long face and I'll say it 'til I'm hoarse

But get these blinkers off and I'll probably find I'm way off course
