lyrics

Well I don't know what you expect of me,
but I know what I expect to see
If we try we'll make the best of things,
and forget about the rest of things

Well put it all behind you, put it all away,
you know we're all behind you every step of the way
You're good, you're fine, you've got it all in line,
we're young, we're free, we ain't got money
all we got is time

Well take a look around you, what you'll find,
are things to help you take it off your mind
Take a break 'cause it'll do you good,
spend some time alone, you know you should

You're burning out but you've got so far to go,
take my advice, you've got to take it slow
In time you'll see it's not a race, my friend,
'cause after all, you decide what's at the end

Take it easy, break it down, one, two, three,
quit thinking big, start thinking logically
You won't get nowhere if you're stuck in the past,
you gotta go slow before you learn to go fast

I'm still alive, and you're still right here with me,
we've got a ways to go, how hard could it be?
We may not always get the best of things,
but we'll be happy with the rest of things

about

The Trails Chapel Hill, North Carolina

"The stylings of Joe Morrison and Stacy Harden have changed the indie music scene for the better. With Morrison's creamy vocals and Harden's steady beats mixed with the simple yet mesmerizing solos of Gary Harden make for a wonderful musical experience. Expect their music to be mainstream in a matter of months."

Thanks, John Goldbaum ... more
