lyrics

Somebody told me
when you search you don't find
somebody told me
it takes time to recognise
the fear that I hold
am I good enough to keep my throne?
will my efforts be in vain?
am I learning from my mistakes?

On these summer evenings
I will try for me
on these summer evenings
I will see things the way you see
I can feel the breeze and it feels warm on me
on these summer evenings
I can view myself differently yeah

Is it the effort I make
that fuels my fear?
is it the glimpse of what could be?
The hope that frightens me?
When life is this good
I long for infinity
trading my cautious steps
for a chance to do my best

On these summer evenings
I will try for me
on these summer evenings
I will see things the way you see
I can feel the breeze and it feels warm on me
on these summer evenings
I can view myself differently yeah

Mistakes are what makes a man
Understand
Not attaching myself to be repetitive, make a plan
Peter Pan still in never land
I’m doing donuts in the quicksand

But if you searching then you will find
These last steps were for mankind
And super powers lie in studio hours
The only remedy is smelling the flowers
And having our name on top of the towers
So what we really after
Aint the candy painted rims that go sour
Or hiding behind the accolades like a coward
But step up to the plate on that hot summer evening
And knocking that thing out the park

Nah just walk it off
Step up to the plate then we walk it off
Its not about what you hate you just walk it off
It’s not about how you hate you just walk it off
I step up to the plate then I walk it off
