Lyrics_Eager

eager of the years (m. amador)

higher - out fall/winter 2007!

back when i was young,

a school girl having fun,

confidence was won

before a doubt had found me.

somehow i had seen

the future that was me,

so enchantedly life had bound me.

eager of the years, i was so eager of the years

living life so high,

knowing time was with me.

then when i had grown,

somehow i had known

that i had no voice to bring out what’s inside me.

blindly reaching out,

clawing at the ground,

looking for the way to realize me.

lost in all the years, i was so lost in all the years,

hoping that the future

would come along and find me.

lost in all the years, i was so lost in all the years,

praying that the future

would come along and find me.

then in my despair

i saw her standing there,

living out my dreams,

she was everything i longed to be.

she had made her way,

an orchestra from clay,

the siren of her day,

my heartbeat was without me.

jealous of her years,

i was so jealous of her years,

watching all my fears,

well on up inside me.

then much later on,

somehow i moved on,

i was on my way

making the most of each and every day

remembered what i’d known

and realized i’d grown

i was on my own

and time was living with me.

living in these years

i’m just living in these years

living life so high

knowing time is with me.
