lyrics

Though you've played at life and lost
Sorrow's turned your brain to frost
I will melt your mind again

There's no percentage in remember the past
It's time to learn to live at last
Come with me
Leave yesterday behind
Take a giant step outside your mind

Stare at me in disbelief
Say for you there's no relief
I swear I'll prove you wrong
Stuck in your lonely room
Staring back in silent gloom
That's not where you belong

Come with me I'll take you where
The taste of life is green
Everyday holds wonders to be seen
Come with me
Leave yesterday behind
Take a giant step outside your mind

There's no percentage in
Remembering the past
It's time to learn to live at last
Come with me I'll take you where
The taste of life is green
Everyday holds wonders to be seen
Come with me
Leave yesterday behind
Take a giant step outside your mind
