 Thought I might get a rocket ride 
When I was a child 
But it was a lie 
That I told myself when I needed something good 
At 17 had a better dream 
Now I'm 33 and it isn't me 
But I'd think of something better if I could 
All my friends and lovers 
Will leave me behind 
And I'm still looking for a girl 
One way or another 
I'm just hoping to find a way 
To put my feet out in the world 
Caught some grief from a falling leaf 
As she tumbled into the dirty ground 
And said I should have put her back there if I could 
Well everyone needs a better day 
And I'm tryin' to find me a better way 
To get through the things I do and the things I should 
All my friends and lovers 
Will leave me alone 
To try to have a little fun 
One way or another 
I just wish I had known 
To go out walking in the sun 
To find out if you were the one 
Does it make you wanna come a little closer now? 
And did you want to dance with me? 
Did you wanna hum a little harder now? 
Can you see her? 
Waiting there 
Can you see her? 
Because I'm almost there 
Can you see her 
Waiting there for someone like me 
Well all you want is a beauty queen 
But not a superstar 
But everybody's dream machine 
All you want is a place to lay your head 
You go to sleep dreamin' how you would 
Be a different kind if you thought you could 
But you come awake the way you are instead 
All my friends and lovers 
They shine like the sun 
Well I just turn and walk away 
One way or another 
I'm not comin' undone 
I'm just waiting for the day 
All my friends 
Ah 
All my friends 
Oh oh oh 
Oh oh oh 
Oh oh oh 
Ah ah
