Lyrics[]
Verse 1[]
- Day by Day, Night by Night
- Everything just feels the same...
- Sometimes I start to ponder
- What can I do?
- What could I be?
- My mind just starts to wander
Pre-Chorus 1[]
- Suddenly, I feel a light of energy
- Shining out the door
- Step by step, I start to feel a change
- And the closer I get...
- I start to realize...
- My whole world starts to rearrange
Chorus[]
- I'm ready to go to places unknown
- Where the sun is always shining
- There's so much to see, so much to do
- Where I can be free from confining (Yeah!)
- Taking a breath and smelling the flowers
- Feeling the clear blue raindrop showers
- This is the way it should be...
- Now that we can finally be set free
Verse 2[]
- While I'd love to stay
- I gotta be on my way...
- There so much more beyond here
- Family, Friends, and others
- Are where my heart belongs
- Even if I can't see them appear
Pre-Chorus 2[]
- I just can't take the loss
- Deep inside myself
- I'd take all of the blame
- If I had just one wish
- I'd take it all back
- Cause it just doesn't feel the same
Chorus[]

- This is the way it should be...
