Cleaning House

Do you ever miss the life you might have had
The one you'd always told yourself you wouldn't let it fade
One more trip around the block
Right back where ya started
Summer's falling in the rearview
Autumn peaking ahead

If you came to my back door you'd catch my past running away
Fleeing toward a fuller life
One where dreams aren't left to waste
Free to dance in the fields
Free to sing in the streets
If my mindset doesn't change I'm worried my future will join in the race

If you need me I'll be in the attic
Sifting through old memories wondering what might have been
I'm so ready to open up this dusty heart
Bring out what I've hid away
Cleaning house to find the dreams I've lost

Do you ever wonder where your wonder went
Why you let yourself believe doubt should guide the way
One more trip around the sun
Right back where you started
Winter's flooding the pavement
Spring is blooming again

If you came to my back door you'd catch my future chasing the past
Fleeing toward that fuller life
One where dreams aren't left to waste
Free to dance in the fields
Free to sing in the streets
If my mindset doesn't change I'm worried my present will join in the race

If you need me I'll be in the attic
Sifting through old memories wondering what might have been
I'm so ready to open up this dusty heart
Bring out what I've hid away
Cleaning house to find the dreams I've lost
