Everything That I'm Looking For

In 30-odd years I've discovered a thing or two
About life and the way I'm supposed to live it
I've heard some anecdotes that made me think
And one step at a time I've tried to be a better man
My mind has gotten slow
As my body's gotten older

But I see it all so clearly now
My dreams are closer than they appear
If I look close to home for the treasure
I'll find everything, everything that I'm looking for

The messages I send aren't clear
And she sometimes makes comments about what I don't hear
I know it's a lot and I haven't got it all figured out
But I'll be damned if I'm not tryin'
My love has gotten strong
And she sometimes sings along

But I see it all so clearly now
My dreams are closer than they appear
If I look close to home for the treasure
I'll find everything, everything that I'm looking for

In summary of a still-young life
I've learned the lessons they teach
Only grow in significance
And now I've got a few of my own to share
I only hope my sons can learn from me
Oh, I only hope my sons can learn from me

But I see it all so clearly now
My dreams are closer than they appear
If I look close to home for the treasure
I'll find everything, woah
I'll find everything, woah
I'll find everything
Everything that I'm looking for
