Lyrics
There’s something about this day that feels a lot like yesterday
Everything looks the same: the wall, the TV set,
The way I move around myself to be
Somewhere over there where things just seem to grow
Where somebody seems to know what they want from me
I never felt like I belonged to anything or anyone
Still I depend on you for every single thing
I could be wrong about so much, but
Somewhere over there where things just seem to grow
Where somebody seems to know what they want from me
I’m too young to know I’m young
I’m too selfish to be strong
Am I too old to allow my adolescence to go on?
There’s something about this day that’s not at all like yesterday
I could be
Somewhere over there where things just seem to grow
Where somebody seems to know what they want from me.

I could be
