"To Get to You"

VERSE
So very fast my life is passing by me
Like a speeding bullet
In the blink of an eye
Ten years shoot past
At the speed of sound
And I'm right where I started
When I hit the ground

CHORUS
Running hard, running fast
So many years behind me
How can I make it last
And find the path that's mine
Here I am and I'm wondering
What am I supposed to do?
To get to where I'm going
I'm gonna get to get to you

VERSE
Traveled near and far to find a peaceful place
Searched all these years for someone I already knew
Wondered where we lost our connection
I only wanted to discover my way back to you





CHORUS
Running hard, running fast
So many years behind me
How can I make it last and find the path that's mine?
Here I am and I'm wondering
What am I supposed to do?
To get to where I'm going
I'm gonna get to you

BRIDGE
I've spent so much of my life searching
For what it is that I desire
I've wasted days in places that I hated
And I just went on hating it I never really tried
To change it
Oh no

VERSE
Life has taken me places I never would have gone to
Life has shown me things I didn't want to see
All I really want from life is to get to where I'm going
Exactly where I want to be
Next to you, next to me

FINAL CHORUS
So now I 'm
Running hard, running fast
Putting everything behind me
I am well on my way
On my way back to you
Here I am I'm no longer wondering what am I supposed to do
To get to where I'm going
I'm gonna get to you, I'm on my way to you
