lyrics
I had these dreams
when I was 10 years old
that I’d be living on a hill in California
at seventeen
I thought that all these things
that I was wishing for were right around the corner
never stopped to read the warning signs,
I only ever saw my name in lights
but
LIFE IS SUCH A MYSTERY
THE ENDING WE CAN’T GUESS
SOME CAN ONLY TAKE SO MANY NO’S
BEFORE THEY GET TO HEAR THAT YES
PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE AND A TEST
I’VE BEEN LOSING FOR SO LONG
AND WATCHING OTHERS PASS ME BY
TOOK ME ALL THIS TIME
TO FIGURE OUT
THAT ALL THESE THINGS TAKE TIME
NOTHING EVER HAPPENED OVERNIGHT
DARLING, THESE THINGS TAKE TIME
I close my eyes and think about the past
and all the mountains and the valleys in between
now I see both sides of the fence have grass,
don’t matter if they’re different shades of green
success ain’t always having what you want
it’s being who you are, not who you’re not
LIFE IS SUCH A MYSTERY
THE ENDING WE CAN’T GUESS
SOME CAN ONLY TAKE SO MANY NO’S
BEFORE THEY GET TO HEAR THAT YES
PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE AND A TEST
I’VE BEEN LOSING FOR SO LONG
AND WATCHING OTHERS PASS ME BY
TOOK ME ALL THIS TIME
TO FIGURE OUT
THAT ALL THESE THINGS TAKE TIME
NOTHING EVER HAPPENED OVERNIGHT
DARLING, THESE THINGS TAKE TIME
it may not work out the first time
or the 2nd time or the 100th time after that
do your best to keep that train on the tracks
LIFE IS SUCH A MYSTERY
THE ENDING WE CAN’T GUESS
SOME CAN ONLY TAKE SO MANY NO’S
BEFORE THEY GET TO HEAR THAT YES
PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE AND A TEST
I’VE BEEN LOSING FOR SO LONG
AND WATCHING OTHERS PASS ME BY
TOOK ME ALL THIS TIME
TO FIGURE OUT
THAT ALL THESE THINGS TAKE TIME
NOTHING EVER HAPPENED OVERNIGHT
DARLING, THESE THINGS TAKE TIME

This ain't Texas. This ain't Nashville. This is country that straddles the US and Canadian border. Its wide open, strong, and a little vulnerable, and in a lot of cases having a good ol' time. I love her feel. veenstar
