Lyrics[]
[PHIL CONNORS]
Drove out of town, took a right onto a northbound highway
Was it really only yesterday?
If I had known what now I know maybe I
[COMPANY]
Ooooh
[PHIL]
Would have taken a moment
Maybe looked over my shoulder
Maybe shed a tear
Now I'm here
A storm blew in, overwhelmed me sometime late this morning
[PHIL & COMPANY]
Think I ignored the warning
[PHIL]
I spent a lifetime seeking signs, reading lines
[COMPANY]
Ahhhh
[PHIL]
Trying to forecast the future
Always stayed a day ahead
[COMPANY]
Ahhhh
[PHIL & COMPANY]
Well that was the idea
[PHIL]
But I'm here
[PHIL & COMPANY]
I thought I'd seen it all
[PHIL]
But sure by now I knew this place
[COMPANY]
Ahhhh
[PHIL & COMPANY]
I swear that I knew every hair
[PHIL]
Each line upon your face
[PHIL & COMPANY]
I thought the only way to
[PHIL]
Better days was through tomorrow
But I know now that I know
I know now that I know nothing
But I'm here
And I'm fine
And I'm seeing you, for the first time
I'm alright
And I'm seeing you, for the first time
[PHIL & RITA HANSON]
I thought I'd seen it all before
[RITA]
I thought I
[PHIL]
I thought I
[PHIL & RITA]
Knew everything
[RITA]
There was to know
[PHIL]
There was to know
[RITA]
About men like you
[PHIL]
And I was sure
[PHIL & RITA]
I thought the only way to better days was through tomorrow
[PHIL, RITA & COMPANY]
But I know now, that I know
Yes, I know now, that I know
That I'm here
And I'm fine
And I'm seeing you for the first time
I'm alright and I'm seeing you
