I knew it was never gonna last when they told me I was dreamin'
Small town, small minds, livin' in the past
I thought 'Hey look at life now, it's gotta have more meaning'
Knew I had to move on, and I had to do it fast.
So I got on the first train that was leaving in the morning
My guitar, my whole life, strapped across my back
One step on the road, never heeding any warnings
Moving far from home and further from the past
I step back and I look at myself
I step back and I look at myself
Gotta job in the city, workin hard to make a livin
Met people, made friends, playing my guitar
Found people who take, found people who are givin
Found my own place, and I knew I'd traveled far
I step back and I look at myself
I step back and I look at myself
So I got some friends of mine and we lived for making music
Any day, any night, any minute we could spare
Got a band and we played, lovin every single minute
And we tried to make it big, but we never got there
I step back and I look at myself
I step back and I look at myself
