Time goes by so fast when you're lonely Dreamin' of the past and the rain Don't feel so bad when you've lost Everything you ever had Like me, the sky is so blue Just thinking about you Is all I ever do I see the sun Reflectin' on the sea But reflection won't ever blind me Like you I've been down so low Didn't hold my breath Drowning in your love But I will find a way To swim out of this today Cause I am a man of conviction And I will break my addiction And you don't know the meaning of affection Turn around and go your own direction Direction, direction The moment I saw the moonlight up your face I knew right then and there I would not win this race The pain that I'm feeling, it's starting to fade So much I don't have to keep this charade up Rockin, I'm rollin, I'm ramblin' on Ready as hell and I got to get on with this Life, it's game that you play til the end Don't roll the dice cause you don't have to win If you're gamblin', you losing, you'll end up in tears The world will consume you, done drown you in fears So, I've made up my mind, gonna make a new start I won't let your lousy hands rip out my heart Because I am a man of conviction And I will break my addiction And you don't know the meaning of affection Turn around and go your own direction Direction, direction
