Nowhere, Baby

[Verse 1]

When I look back on my youth, it's no wonder that I'm here

There's a path made for my footsteps, that finish line is near

Though the years are passing quickly, I believe I'm on my way

But a voice beneath the surface still manages to say

[Chorus]

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere, baby)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere, baby)

I'm gettin' nowhere

[Verse 2]

I made some money, made some friends and some memories to hold

Crossed the mountains and the valleys, fought the swelter and the cold

From a different angle maybe this adventure could seem grand

But the one I miss too often is being there to hold your hand

[Chorus]

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere, baby)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere, baby)

I'm gettin' nowhere

[Verse 3]

I'm slowing down, but I'm not quittin', I'm looking hard and steppin' back

But I will finish what I started, I will keep my suitcase packed

I'm just weary of the work and trading songs for fickle love

And it's time I showed myself exactly what I am made of

And that's not a cop out, not a dream drop, not a "Close, but no cigar"

And it's not glamour, it ain't fortune, sometimes it ain't anything but hard

I'm not a robot, I'm a human, I'm not built to bear the weight

And I struggle with admitting when I need to walk away

[Chorus]

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere, baby)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere, baby)

I'm gettin' nowhere

[Outro]

Nowhere, baby (Nowhere, baby)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Nowhere, baby)

I'm gettin' nowhere

Nowhere, baby (I ain't gettin' nowhere)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby (Ain't getting nowhere)

Nowhere, baby (I ain't gettin' nowhere)

I'm gettin' nowhere, baby
