The Goo Goo Dolls
Already There (Live At The Academy, New York City, 1995)
[Verse 1]
Look outside my window, everything was blanketed in white
Neighbors pushing cars out from the snow that fell on us last night
Started thinking about the things we used to do when we were young
Back when things were simple, getting up was fun
[Chorus]
I couldn't care, I'm already there
I'm already there, already there
[Verse 2]
Turn around and face the clock
I sit and watch, as time went hopping by
Still growing up, my friends are growing old before my eyes
Count the stars above and wonder when heavens will subside
Knowing our two worlds will someday just collide
[Chorus]
I couldn't care, I'm already there
I'm already there, already there
[Verse 3]
Just a boy who's young at heart, his smile was a bit like yours today
Had a wife, a kid, some strife, never had to go astray
Happiness evolved, life was in full swing at seventeen
All the things he wanted were things he'd never seen
[Outro]
It don't seem fair, I'm already there
I'm already there, already there
Oh-oh, I'm already there
Oh-oh, yeah
