Just another Monday morning

I'm pushing my way through the traffic jam

Nothing really seems to move

I'm trying to get ahead the best I can



I start thinking about my life

And about what let me get this far

Is a tiny little wheel inside a big machine

Really all we are



Not today

This day is mine

Everything's just perfect

I can feel the whole world's gently swinging my way



After all

That I've been through

All that lies behind me

It feels like there's a whole new life and it's just begun



I get right out of my car

I feel that I've got better things to do

Can't see yet what that might be

But it's a fact a change was overdue



I know it is not always wise

To simply run away

But I don't mind the consequences

At least not today



This day is mine

Everything's just perfect

I can feel the whole world's gently swinging my way



After all

That I've been through

All that lies behind me

It feels like there's a whole new life and it's just begun



Ask yourself if you really are

The one you want to be

Look around and say if you see

What you wish there would be



Every now and then our balance slips away

Every now and then what we get isn't worth the price we pay



I'm tired of trying to meet

Someone else's expectations

For the price of missing my own

That just gave me frustration



That chase for money

Was a plan that surely had to fail

So my decision's clear, from this day on I am

Not for sale



This day is mine

Everything's just perfect

I can feel the whole world's gently swinging my way



After all
