Jon Miller And The Two Steps - The Past Three Years lyrics

rate me

I went in hiding for the past three years<br />

This town hasn?t seen my face I through back all my fears<br />

I was looking for a new king a preacher with pride<br />

One who wore a white robe and had nothing left to hide<br />

I took a trip for the past three years<br />

And all the people I met they all cried the same old tears<br />

I met an Indian an African too<br />

We were drinking scotch at Smiths bar, hanging on 8^th avenue<br />

I lost the beat for the past three years<br />

Now I can?t stop tapping my feet I found what I?m doing here<br />

I?ll tell you a story about all of our lives<br />

Poets and Painters there artists all alike<br />

The first time I knew my name in the past three year<br />

I realized were not all the same, what?s your drink my dear?<br />

I heard Butch Walker sing about ?lights out in my heart?<br />

I had a hard time believing he wasn?t one from the start<br />

I kissed the highway for the past three years<br />

Ashes to asphalt, Vegas city thrills<br />

The bright lights are illusions to suck you inside<br />

Teach you about love and lust, the furthest things on my mind<br />

I?ve seen a thousand faces in the past three years<br />

Everyone that lost the race all caught up in the premier<br />

Instantly gratified living to be entertained<br />

Going through the day to day only to complain<br />

So you?re stuck with me for three more years<br />

Maybe I?ll give up and quit, hell I?ll move away from here<br />

You wish it was so easy, well so do I<br />

If life is a game of chance, why should we try?
