You are afraid to try
So you've got no right to cry
And chances come too late to be of use
You are at an awkward stage
'Cause you are from a different age
All your bright ideas sound so passé

Although I know you know
If something's not right
You change it forever
Or not at all

The same old problems hang around
Another comes up
When you knock one down
It's the same old life
In a different town

I don't have it in for you
'Cause I think I'm stuck here too
And one more slip
And we are here to stay

Although I know you know
(although I hear you say you?re not thinking about tomorrow)
You change it forever
Or not at all
