I used to laugh, I used to cry I used to do everything I wanted to I don't know when, I don't know why But somewhere I must have lost that guy I knew With a drink or two Any bad excuse would do I would like to quit my job, take a trip around the world I would like to live for love, but I'm scared of being hurt I would do so many things if I just could break the ice But I'm paralyzed Where will I be in twenty years If I cannot change, I just don't wanna know The days go by, I don't know why But it's kinda hard to rearrange your life When your fear's your gloom Any bad excuse will do I would like to dive for pearls, but the water's way too deep I would like to live my dream, but I cannot even sleep I would like to taste the rain somewhere close to Paradise But I'm paralyzed I would like to play guitar, but it's always out of tune I would like to write a song, but I cannot find a rhyme I would do so many things; I just have to break the ice But I'm paralyzed I used to laugh, I used to cry I don't know when, I don't know why Where will I be in twenty years I don't know, I don't know
