I started thinkin' bout the rest of my life I found myself just lookin' out for trouble and strife Someone with whom I'd spend the rest of my days But if I ever said I wasn't settin' my ways Well then I guess you caught me lying to myself What kind of fool doesn't think about it (x2) You'd have to be a fool not to think about it
Chorus - Am I Gonna settle down Am I gonna be Someone who has to take the rest of my life To settle down Well I guess you caught me lying to myself ) We'll make a man outta me One thing I know about the rest of my life I know that I'll be living it in Canada I know I said I'll share the rest of my days But I was only going through a phase

I know that I'm just a friend, Not what you call a relation. I wonder what they would say Regarding the situation, oh yea. (ooo)
Looking forward till next time. (ooo) I promise that I won't drag my feet. Always looking for reasons to walk on your street, oh yea.
It's been so long, it's been so long. You think you're on your own, just taking it slow, But something always happens whenever we're together, it shows.
I feel that I'm out of touch, Not very good at pretending. But when you sit in my path I don't know what I'm defending, oh yea. (ooo)
Looking forward till next time. (ooo) I might as well just admit defeat It's the bridge too far And I'll always repeat, oh yea.

I can see the writing on the wall You hardly see me lately if at all, well, well It's funny you say that 'Cause I miss you like I never have before But nothing lasts forever anymore
I want to know you, want to trust you But you get a lot of love from the guys I want to show you, oh, but must you Be easy on the ears and the eyes, too?
Don't you know the time is right? Don't you know the time is right? It's funny you say that 'Cause I'm standing here, and what that's standing for Is nothing lasts forever anymore
Don't you know the time is right? Don't you know the time is right?
I believe you mean it when you say That you have time for me, but not today, well, well It's funny you say that Well, it may be true, but one thing is for sure Is nothing lasts forever anymore
Don't you know nothing lasts forever anymore? And nothing lasts forever anymore Don't you know nothing lasts forever anymore? And nothing lasts forever anymore
I followed it half way around the world It's obnoxious and absurd I dedicate myself too late To all the people who have heard The sound of the living gospel The promise of the living word That a fool like me can refuse to believe And to get what I deserve
Take it on Take it on
Arms and elbows Made to hold close Legs that follow Head that's hollow All that you know Is love must grow Or you will lose Or you will lose
The hardest lesson that you learn Elimination of concern I realise the compromise It's the flicker not the burn It's easy living life on the outside To never have to wait for your turn But even a fool like me can refuse to believe And still get what I deserve
Never needed nobody Never needed a girl I've been breakin' my own heart I've been rockin' my world
Jealous of myself Up until I finally gotta Load of you Now you're the one I want So you gotta tell me What I gotta do
(So that I'm) Ready I'm ready for you I'm ready I'm ready for you
My life is so lonesome Now I know you exist We could talk on the phone some But I'd rather we kissed
Always lookin' in But you showed me How I could be lookin' out For somebody else I suppose you Showed me what it's all about
(I think I'm) Ready I'm ready for you I'm ready I'm ready for you
I'm beggin' my pardon I guess I never knew I've been lookin' for something Something tells me it's you
(I think I'm) Ready I'm ready for you I'm ready I'm ready for you (I think I'm) Ready I'm ready for you I'm ready I'm ready for you (I think I'm) Ready
Trace patterns to see If we're just rewriting history The die it was cast long ago A carbon copy we could have been Buried under files that won't be seen The die it was cast long ago
Everybody seems content to fade away Ooo you got it, don't shut it away
Something once mattered to me But it's forgotten so conveniently Is it the end of the family line? A carbon copy I could have been Don't you know I never Settled for the in-between The die it was cast long ago
Everybody seems content to fade away Ooo you got it, don't shut it away Everybody seems content to fade away Ooo you got it, don't shut it away
I can't invest my time I've tried it all and I'm tired of trying You think you got it all figured out and everything you think it's about when you found yourself finally released you hit the ground and kept running east and now it's all catching up to you as these things usually do
saw it all and I can't deny it's a hard life living a lie
If it feels good do it even if you shouldn't don't let people mess you around feels go do it even if you shouldn't nobody can mess you around
saw it all and I can't deny it's a hard life living a lie
you're running away things would have been different if you decided to stay you can't wear you heart on your sleeve if you're just going to leave I can't invest my time I've tried it all and I'm tired of trying saw it all and I can't deny it's a hard life living a lie
In the time it takes us to walk another city mile we could do it in the movies do it in the movies like what you're on about
by the time I show you a reason why you're out of style you could see it in the movies
clearly I don't even know what I'm doing Or what I'm on about it feels like somebody else's lights came on I'll take another look around
and the feeling I get when I watch you day in or day out can make me feel l can turn it off or on
every day you wonder if I can read between the lines I could do it in a movie do it in a movie - that's what it's all about
it feels like somebody else's lights came on I'll take another look around and I don't even know where I'm going or where I'm coming from and now I'm travling down the autobahn and I'm too afraid to turn around and I can't even see where I'm going but I'll take another look around
like they did in the movies just like they did it in the movies we could do it in a movie
You, I wish i knew you better Then again I can wait 'til next September Slowly buying time These conditions make me restless Then again I admit that this will test us 'Cuz everywhere now I can see the number one followed by the nine I wonder if a year or two will matter because I'm...
Dreaming of you, all day, hardly seems appropriate Tested and true, all day, the situations's delicate
You, I dreamt the seven towers Were slowly falling down And in the last remaining hours Still everywhere I could see the number one followed by the nine Just this once I think I might cast the rules aside
Dreaming of you, all day, hardly seems appropriate Just drifting through, all day, no one seems to notice it
Everyone's behind us We don't dare lead the blindest Still the promise of the victory Eliminates stakes against me
Dreaming of you, all day, hardly seems appropriate Just drifting through, all day, no one seems to notice it
You know he's not the one for you, but that's no fault of mine He knows that I'm a friend of yours but doesn't know I've crossed the line I know you've got a man in the picture, but it hasn't stopped me yet We've all been in one situation or another we regret
Now I'm the other man, no one's rooting for me If I'm the other man, nature will abhor me
You know I want to keep my distance, does it happen anyway? He knows you're gonna drift apart, and there's nothing he can say I know that he's a stand-up guy, but that's none of my concern We've all been in one situation or another, it's my turn
To be the other man, no one sympathizes When you're the other man that everyone despises
He's gonna find out that the rumors are true The ones that are still unbeknownst to you He'll find out, so I'll tell you because You gotta find out before he does
I know you've got a man in the picture, but it hasn't stopped me yet We've all been in one situation or another we regret
Now I'm the other man, no one's rooting for me If I'm the other man, nature will abhor me Yeah, no one sympathizes When you're the other man that everyone despises
Yeah (Yeah) We've all been in one situation or another (Yeah) We've all been in one situation or another (Yeah) We've all been in one situation or another
