Both Ways

I'm slowing down I've been staying in the same town For a couple of years now I'm getting around to settling down Loving the feeling of building my own home And watching a life grow Yeah I picked my branch of the tree And that's a hard thing to feel There's so many versions of me I'm never going to be One can't have it both ways And both ways Is the only way that I want it One can't have it both ways And both ways Is the only way that I want it There's no saving time You can't pile it up and use it later Spend it as soon as you make it Time runs like sand through your hands You've gotta pick your fighter Keep working, amplify her Can't pay the rent with potential Gotta stick with the plan Now I'm at the top of the tree Watching all the versions of me I'm never going to be 'Cause one can't have it both ways And both ways Is the only way that I want it One can't have it both ways And both ways Is the only way that I want it I miss feeling like all the doors are open But you've gotta choose a direction before they're closing One can't have it both ways And both ways Is the only way that I want it One can't have it both ways And both ways Is the only way that I want it One can't have it both ways And both ways Is the only way that I want it One can't have it both ways And both ways Is the only way that I want it
