Never thought I was special
Never thought we'd get this far
Never tried to be professional
Writing lyrics has always been hard
I'm told I drink too much on stage
At least for a grown man my age
We don't claim were best there's ever been
But tonight we're gonna play
Like the worlds gonna end
We're gonna play our songs
Until the cows come home
Until the wheels come off
As if tomorrow never gonna come
Ever since I could remember
I've always wanted this life
Now im a card carrying member
Paying my dues every single night
Stage to stage and town to town
Drink to drink and drink to ground
Someday I'll get my self in line
And hope I make it just in time
We're gonna play our songs
Until the cows come home
Until the wheels come off
As if tomorrow never gonna come
Don't take it seriously
It's only life you see
It's only time gone by
And soon we'll leave them both behind
But don't think for just one minute
That you'll leave behind your spirit
You'll need it where you're going
The music comes from somewhere
And I can't quite put my finger on it
But I would think it comes from there
But where's the there I'm thinking of
Of consciousness, of self and love
To go there do we have to die
Or can we go there alive tonight
Is that what music is meant to do
To go beyond the physical
Beyond religion, beyond the spiritual
Beyond time, and what's imaginable
Beyond the definition of our universe
From the verse, to chorus, back to verse
Go there and you'll find
We're gonna play our songs
Until the cows come home
Until the wheels fall off
As if tomorrow never gonna come
Don't take it seriously
It's only life you see
It's only time gone by
And soon we'll leave them both behind
We're gonna play our songs
Until forevers gone
Until the sky will fall
On a cold day in hell
