Lyrics

Sometimes you hang your head low
with a good reason
you think your wings are clipped
the world keeps on teasing you
watchin' from the inside out
losing your clout
better not look back
stopped in your tracks

Living The Dream - if just for a season
Living The Dream
Living The Dream - if just for one reason
Living The Dream

Time is up - bring it on home
and churn it out strongly
for hours glued to the phone
that leaves no doubt
you're trying to recover
to make it all happen
another drawback straight ahead
but all you think about is...

Living The Dream - if just for a season
Living The Dream
Living The Dream - if just for one reason
Living The Dream

The long and winding road ahead
it's back to the grind
no matter how long it will take
for fortune to arrive
paving the way for
others to follow
although some don't deserve it
can't offset the claim
