I don't have time for dancing
That's just gonna have to wait a while
Ain't got time for messin' around
But it's not my style
This old town can slow you down
People takin' the easy way
But I know exactly where I'm going
Gettin' closer and closer every day
And I'm almost there
I'm almost there
People down here think I'm crazy
But I don't care
Trials and tribulations
I've had my share
There ain't nothing gonna stop me now
'Cause I'm almost there
Every day I would try to smile
I started going out with my friends again
And I would laugh with them
And I was sure that helped too
I remember Daddy told me
"Fairy tales can come true
But you gotta make 'em happen
It all depends on you"
So I work real hard each and every day
Now things for sure are goin' my way
Just doin' what I do
Look out boys, I'm comin' through
And I'm almost there
I'm almost there
People gonna come here from everywhere
And I'm almost there
I knew what had to happen
I was gonna get better, get to NYC
And get back to what I love
There's been trials and tribulations
You know I've had my share
But I've climbed a mountain
And I've crossed a river
And I'm almost there
I'm almost there
I'm almost there!
