3.Nothing Is The Same

When i was feeling 'bout sixteen, i never had no idea.
Listen to me if you want to know what i mean,
your expression will let me see.
I never knew what i was looking for, i never had the time.
And now that time has opened up my door,
now i'm looking forward just to see what, just what's mine.

When i was feeling 'bout eighteen,
it's then when i began to see.
No matter how hard you push on the door,
it won't open without the key.
Opportunity only knocks once,
if you shut it out it's a sin.
And when something keeps right on poundin',
then, my friend, you'd better let it in.

Now i feel just a little bit old and,
sadness fills my brain.
I can flash to future years and nothing is the same.
Nothing is the same.
Nothing is the same.
Nothing is the same.
