My Philosophy

	You look away, you're speaking with your back turned.
	Summer's gone and it left me with a sunburn
	Whatever happened to our afternoons?
	Just assumed that you lost me like a left turn
	I spent my childhood lookin at the stage
	Waiting for the day it would be me and I could say
	"Slow down…"
	That's my philosophy
	I get by
	Making the best of what was mine
	If you think this could be what you want
	Then you just gotta try
	You won't mind
	Playing a victim of the time
	'Cuz I swear it's getting better yeah
	That's my philosophy
	It could be over in a moment
	The curtain falls before you know it
	Looking forward towards the next scene
	Remember back when we were young and still above?
	We're falling in and out of love and then again before the bell rings
	If you take a trip through my mind
	Who knows just what you'll find
	Stop dead in your tracks from her eyes
	Then put it all together
	That's my philosophy
	Remember the look upon her face
	Remember the way she loved the chase
	If we ever go back there someday
	I'd never, ever, let her get away
	It's drinking away the summer days
	A moment in time we can't replace
	I won't let my life go to waste
	That's my philosophy
