Gonna  lose my  way  tomorrow,
gonna  give away  my car.
I'd  take you along  with me,
 but you would  not go so far.
Don't  see what I  do  not want to see,
you  don't hear what  I  don't say.
Won't  be what I don't  want to be,
 I continue  in my way.
Don't  see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't  see, see, see where I'm goin',
Don't  see, see, see where I'm goin' to,
 I don't want  to.
 2's
Everyday  I see  the mornin' come  on in the same  old way.
I  tell myself  tomorrow brings me things  I would not dream  today.
