Obstacles, they come and go, that's the name of the game you know This life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards then fold Can't give back the time you stole, path unravels, the day unfolds This life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards
Two steps forward, take one step back Every time I get on track light fades to black When the curtain drops back and I step to my destiny I find my freedom right in front of me
It's in your eyes, I see when we dance to the beat And these sweet melodies ride in on a breeze Trees part for me but these sharks still circle through the park
I look to you It's in my nature to listen to you I ran after you and the lights went blue Me and you, you and me, share my heart with you You're my family now
Obstacles, they come and go, that's the name of the game you know This life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards then fold Can't give back the time you stole, path unravels, the day unfolds This life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards
Once upon a time I ran to you Banned myself to find your wealth And return to the land of truth, Found myself all alone as the stars, they kiss
Still running after you through this wilderness At dawn I track snow through backyards and front lawns I'm up late, wide awake, I'm reborn as day breaks and gets calm
I look to you It's in my nature to listen to you I ran after you and the lights went blue Me and you, you and me, share my heart with you You're my family now
Obstacles, they come and go, that's the name of the game you know This life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards then fold Can't give back the time you stole, path unravels, the day unfolds This life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards then fold
Sifting through the sand A man is just a man No matter how you fan the flame, it all comes out the same In the end you were my friend
Sifting through the sand A man is just a man No matter how you fan the flame, it all comes out the same In the end you were my friend
Obstacles, they come and go, that's the name of the game you know This life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards then fold Can't give back the time you stole, path unravels, the day unfolds This life can't be bought nor sold, play your cards, then fold
