Flying down a partly spiral stairway I wipe the hair back from my face And I take one last look past my right shoulder And I say goodbye to this place I walk through the door and I will close it one last time Got that look, not a smile not quite a frown And if pain were my family then I guess I’m homeward bound But I’m fine This Time Around Yes I’m fine This Time Around
I drive down the highway in a slow lane car But I’m passing people left and right And I can picture your face inside the sun’s orange glow As I watch the day turn into night And it’s not the fact it was the wrong place and wrong time Or that I lost the love we once had found It’s that I knew from the start of this it never would work out But I’m fine This Time Around Yes I’m fine This Time Around
And I don’t know why I’ve these delusions in my mind Of fairytales built once upon a time And I can’t figure out what all this misery’s about But I’ll be fine This time
Going down going down Going down without a sound As I watch my dreams all shatter to the ground Going down going down Silence never seemed so loud Going down down down Going down down down
But I’m fine This time Said I’ll be fine This time Yes I’ll be fine This time around
