Missed a turn today Road I found brought me back to yesterday An old, beat-up van that never ran boss I couldn't stand Said I'm on my way Despite those reasons that I should have stayed Box in hand, without a plan's a lonely time for a man Much is made of times like these Quitting work, rolling up your sleeves But finding out what you believe Is never easy as it seems I know better now Took a chance that day Tried not to hear what people had to say They think they know, but they don't know Said I'm on my way, pulled out on that street I'm on today Box in hand without a plan's a lonely time for a man Much is made of times like these Quitting work, rolling up your sleeves In books and pictures, magazines When people are telling how they found their dreams But finding out what you believe Is never easy as it seems I know better now Looking back now it may seem I found my way with such ease But I remember on days like these What it took to find these dreams It wasn't easy like it seems In books and pictures, magazines But I know I'm better now
