Lyrics
You’re Not Going That Way
1 Trying to find a way and embark on a new path
Jump from the ledge and land with both feet on the ground
Justify mistakes, now time to put away the excuses
Make better decisions, put together all pieces of your life
Prechorus
Just trying to find a way home again, to where you once belonged
Just trying to fight through the pain and scars and not feel so alone
Just trying to care, and make the world a better place
Bombs away my children, jump away my friend, into the waters of a new day
Chorus
Climb higher and higher, into the sunset
Fly away towards a brighter day, and right all the wrongs you’ve done
Have faith and hope in tomorrow, love and happiness
Make a change, turn away from your past and don’t go back
cause you're not going that way, you’re not going that way
2 Maybe you'll find the comfort of love and affection for somebody groovy
Someone who listens, and gets it, and doesn't pass judgment
Maybe you'll find hope, and have chance fun and adventure
Climb to the top of a ridge, of a mountain and never look down
Prechorus
Just trying to find my dreams, set out in a new direction
Just trying to have the strong spirit, the vision, the courage to change
Just trying to care, and have the world live as one
Bombs away my children, jump away my friend, into the waters of a new day
Chorus
Climb higher and higher, into the sunset
Fly away towards a brighter a brighter day, and right all the wrongs you’ve done
Have faith and hope in tomorrow, love and happiness
Make a change, turn away from your past and don’t go back
cause you're not going that way, you’re not going that way
