Detours

I was on the straight and narrow
A path of persistence, wasn't willing to risk this dream I'd cared for
Funny how life can take you by surprise
I wanted nothing more than to open up that door
That leads me where you are
I never got very far

How did I get here?
I've been running from this fear, oh
That I'm never gonna make it, never gonna make it
With all these detours
Time is ticking and I hate it, trying to be patient
With every turn

Trouble always knocked me down
I couldn't begin to unravel the script, I wanted out
Every little change made me feel so far away
What I didn't know is even on a different road
Every moment is golden
And I've gotta own it

How did I get here?
I've been running from this fear, oh
That I'm never gonna make it, never gonna make it
With all these detours
Time is ticking and I hate it, trying to be patient
With every turn
With every turn

This road has been
A little bent but it's not broken
This story's penned with eyes wide open

Ooh, ooh

How did I get here?
I've been running from this fear, oh
That I'm never gonna make it, never gonna make it
With all these detours
Time is ticking and I hate it, trying to be patient
With every turn

Am I ever gonna make it, am I gonna make it
With all these detours
Time is ticking and I hate it, trying to be patient
With every turn
With every turn
