My Philosophy

You look away, you're speaking with your back turned.

Summer's gone and it left me with a sunburn

Whatever happened to our afternoons?

Just assumed that you lost me like a left turn

I spent my childhood lookin at the stage

Waiting for the day it would be me and I could say

"Slow down…"

That's my philosophy

I get by

Making the best of what was mine

If you think this could be what you want

Then you just gotta try

You won't mind

Playing a victim of the time

'Cuz I swear it's getting better yeah

That's my philosophy

It could be over in a moment

The curtain falls before you know it

Looking forward towards the next scene

Remember back when we were young and still above?

We're falling in and out of love and then again before the bell rings

If you take a trip through my mind

Who knows just what you'll find

Stop dead in your tracks from her eyes

Then put it all together

That's my philosophy

Remember the look upon her face

Remember the way she loved the chase

If we ever go back there someday

I'd never, ever, let her get away

It's drinking away the summer days

A moment in time we can't replace

I won't let my life go to waste

That's my philosophy
