Walking On The Milky Way
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I was only seventeen
My head was full of brilliant dreams
My heart would call and I would gladly go
At twenty one the world was mine
And I was yours and you're divine
And nothing else would matter to us so
I don't believe in destiny
I don't believe in love
I don't believe that anything
Will ever be enough
Man, you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day, hey, hey...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby, we were on our way
So what do you say, hey, hey...
As time goes by reality
Destroys your hope and dignity
There's nothing left but shadows on the wall
But just remember who you are
And where you've been you've come so far
And never ever let them see you fall
I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in truth
I don't believe in anything
Can recreate your youth
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day, hey, hey...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say, hey, hey...
Walking on the milky way
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day, hey, hey...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say, hey, hey...
Walking on the milky way
