Trends and Phases - Close Your Eyes

This is my stomping ground,

these are the roads I walk home.

Out here where the streets unwind

keeping the city lights on

Leaving’s not the same

as being left behind

I found my own path in life,

passed up the suit and tie.

I found a way

of escaping the 9 to 5.

But to judge you on your own life,

that’s not for me to say

I’ve seen this happen before

but I won’t let it change me.

Do whatever works for you

There’s no substitute for staying true

to get you through the dark times.

Trends and phases come and go.

Connect with a world you barely know

Lord knows it’ll open your eyes.

This is my stomping ground

and one day I’ll settle down,

but not for a while

out here, where the streets unwind

and lead me to peace of mind,

away from the city lights

Leaving’s not the same

as being left behind,

(but we turn new pages

in our lives.)

Do whatever works for you

There’s no substitute for staying true

to get you through the dark times.

Trends and phases come and go,

Connect with a world you barely know

Lord knows it’ll open your eyes,

your eyes.

City lights bring me home, the streets unwind.

I found my own path to peace of mind.

It’s not over yet

City lights bring me home.

The streets unwind

and leavings not the same

as being left behind.

These days

these days get tough,

but don’t mistake love

for spoon fed lives,

for spoon fed lives

These days

these days get tough,

but don’t mistake love

for spoon fed lives,

for spoon fed lives

These days

these days get tough,

but don’t mistake love

for spoon fed lives

These days

these days get tough,

but don’t mistake love

for spoon fed lives,

for spoon fed lives

(don't mistake love,

don’t mistake love)

Do whatever works for you

There’s no substitute for staying true

to get you through the dark times.

Trends and phases come and go.

Connect with a world you barely know

Lord knows it’ll open your eyes.

Do whatever works for you

There’s no substitute for staying true

to get you

to get you

Trends and phases come and go.

Connect with a world you barely even know

You even know

Lord knows it’ll open your eyes.

your eyes.
