Lyrics

I want the good life

But I don't want an easy ride

What I want is to work for it

Feel the blood and sweat on my fingertips

That's what I want for me

I want to know everything

Maybe someday I will

What I want is to find my place

Breathe the air and feel the sun on my children's face

That's what I want

I go round and round just like a circle

I can see a clearer picture

When I touch the ground I come full circle

To my place and I am home, I am home

I want to let go of all disappointment

That's waiting for me

What I want is to live forever

Not defined by time and space

It's a lonely place that's what I want

I go round and round just like a circle

I can see a clearer picture

When I touch the ground I come full circle

To my place and I am home, I am home

I go round and round just like a circle

I can see a clearer picture

When I touch the ground I come full circle

To my place and I am home, I am home

I go round and round just, round and round just...
