Don't you know, that I've been drifting away,
Better catch my rope before I'm landing on the next train,
To somewhere far away
And ain't it quaint, how we are always shifting and shaking in our shoes,
Watching the days go by
Nothing is gonna change unless we let it happen
And I just won't

I know you have your agenda and your new clothes and everyone around you
And, no, I won't slow you down we all have our big plans
You'll go off to California and the whole world will spin around before you
And, no, I won't slow you down, I'll be here doing everything I can

And when you come back around and you will, I know,
I can see the way you're shifting in your shoes now,
It must be difficult
And I can't blame you, you've always been a shaker
And I believe in you like the sun and the dirt and the ocean
We will never break unless we let it happen,
And I just won't

I know you have your agenda and your new clothes and everyone around you
And, no, I won't slow you down we all have our big plans
You'll go off to California and the whole world will spin around before you
And, no, I won't slow you down, I'll be here doing everything I can

To be fine, yeah
Taste it changing, we can make this, we can fake it
We're gonna be fine, yeah
Taste it changing, we can make this, we can fake it

I know you have your agenda and your new clothes and everyone around you
And, no, I won't slow you down we all have our big plans, yeah, yeah, yeah,
You'll go off to California and the whole world will spin around before you
And, no, I won't slow you down, I'll be here doing everything I can

To be fine, yeah
