lyrics
I could make a plan to get better
Make a point to make all my amends
I could change for good
Like I said I always would
But I’m back to my old ways again
My mind it swims with ambitions
Keeps me up at night until three A.M
Then I’d just waste the day
I’d dream it all away
Yeah, I’m back to my old ways again
I could finally quit all those bad habits
Quit my drinking and stop blowing off my friends
I wouldn’t lie or cheat
Become a brand new me
But I’m back to my old ways again
I could call up all of my former lovers
The ones who gave up on me way back when
And say, “Forgive me, babe,
I’ve made my fair share of mistakes”
But I’m back to my old ways again
I could hop a westbound plane out to Cayucos
Carve my name out with a stick into the sand
I could unearth these roots
I could be born anew
But I’m back to my old ways again
With each dying day I feel myself grow older
My reflection it demands, “Who is this man?”
With all this time we can’t control
I’d better get myself a soul
But I’m back to my old ways again
Someday maybe I will find another
The one who’s just as sorry as I am
Two lives waiting to begin
We’ll find solace in our sins
And both be happy in our old ways again
We’ll both be happy in our old ways again
We’ll both be happy in our old ways again
