You can check the boxes on a life you'll never feel
Get an office job, a house with granite and stainless steel
Memorize the TV Guide, make play-dates for the kids
Keeping up with Joneses, It's the formula that wins
The thing about a thousand years
Now that's a lot of time
I only wanna see us clear
All of the waiting and the wanting disappear
All astir in the wake of a calendar blur
watching rain streak the panels again and again
From my seat on the train, like a film strip's grain
I can see it go by
You can try and set the stage for happiness and love
Follow all the blueprints but the feeling never comes
When I think about my younger years ...
when love was all around
I only wanna put that back 'til I can feel the fire warm my cheek
