I was coming on strong
Running the hard race
Flying through the clouds
and it was still yesterday
I was feeling pretty good
Setting a fast pace
Flying east to west
and it was still yesterday

Consider this thought
before you throw your ball and chain over the balcony
My hat in my hand
Can you imagine all our lives without this alchemy

I was coming on strong
Running the hard race
Flying through the clouds
and it was still yesterday
I was feeling pretty good
Setting a fast pace
Flying east to west
and it was still yesterday

Think of my shame
I was seasick on the ocean for the first time
It's never the same
when your friends console you saying fear is no crime

I was coming on strong
Running the hard race
Flying through the clouds
and it was still yesterday
I was feeling pretty good
Setting a fast pace
Flying east to west
and it was still yesterday

I've seen my case
disappearing on its own from the baggage claim
and I've seen the sunshine
floating a couple of miles above the thunder and the rain

I was coming on strong
Running the hard race
Flying through the clouds
and it was still yesterday
I was feeling pretty good
Setting a fast pace
Flying east to west
and it was still yesterday
