From the first time I saw her when I was kid

I knew I had to have her so that's what I did

I set out to find her wherever I could

You might call it a waste not that I would

She hid in the bars and she hid on the road

But mostly she hid out on the radio

Singing to me about a life in the stars

Telling me you could be so much more than you are

I wanted her so bad to notice me

But every time I thought I caught her she just left me

Chasing Glory

Wherever you are

I haven't gone a mile but I've come this far

You promised me riches, you promised me fame

But all I have of you is just a name that I keep chasing

Glory

Well I started to sing and I learned how to play

Made myself worthy of her everyday

Not that she noticed, she was never around

Just out of reach or in the next town

Finally one night, she whispered to me

Look deep in my eyes, do you like what you see

I was selling my soul just as fast as I could

She took it and vanished leaving me where I stood

I thought that what she had would set me free

But every time I thought her caught her she just left me

Chasing Glory

Wherever you are

I haven't gone a mile but I've come this far

You promised me riches, you promised me fame

But all I have of you is just a name that I keep chasing

Glory

Well the dream dies hard but that's how it goes

35 years down this empty road

No one understands me quite like you do

Not that I get that satisfaction from you

You could promise me heaven and I'd have to believe

I wouldn't want to know if there's a card up your sleeve

And not that it matters but I'm still around

If you're still willing, I'm still here to be found

I wanted her so bad to notice me

But every time I thought I caught her she just left me

Chasing Glory

Wherever you are

I haven't gone a mile but I've come this far

You promised me riches, you promised me fame

But all I have of you is just a name that I keep chasing

Glory
