On My Way
Written by Tommy Shaw

"...everybody plays this one right, everybody gets a fresh, hot latte and a scone..."
Oh what a beautiful night
Couldn't get any clearer
Yeah what a wonderful sight
My old life in the rear view mirror
Hey now I'm travelin' light
Duffel bag and a six string
Yeah but it feels so right
To hear the bells of freedom ring
Gotta get away from
The same old same
Let a new day come
Start over again
Hey I was stuck in a grind
Little fish in a little pond
If I had a criminal mind
I'd have got myself a gun
Had to get away from
The ball and chain
Let a new day come
Or start goin' insane
I'm on my way
Don't know to where
But I'm gonna get there
On my way
Look at the world
With my brand new eyes
I can't believe I feel so high
I'm on my way tonight
Hey I was going to seed
Spreading out like a corn field
I had so much denial to feed
I was full of nothing real
I had to get away from
My old routine
Let a new day come
Start over again
I'm on my way
I don't know to where
But I'm gonna get there
On my way
Look at the world
Through my brand new eyes
I can't believe I get to feel
So good
So high tonight
Starting tonight
There will be
A revival
In my world
Turn on the lights
And you'll see
This one man band
Is now a symphony
And the sun
Is gonna shine
Like a summer time
That has no end
And the love
I will find
I have no doubt
That it will be mine
The love I find
Will all be mine
I had to get away while
I could still be saved
Let a new day come
Stop digging my grave
On my way...
I have faith
The road up ahead
Gonna get much easier
On my way
Look at me now
With a brand new life
I can't believe I feel so high
I'm on my way tonight
"...'scuse me, waitress, latte's and scones for everybody!..."
