On My Way Lyrics - Styx

"...everybody plays this one right, everybody gets a fresh, hot latte and a scone..." 

Oh what a beautiful night 

Couldn't get any clearer 

Yeah what a wonderful sight 

My old life in the rear view mirror 

Hey now I'm travelin' light 

Duffel bag and a six string 

Yeah but it feels so right 

To hear the bells of freedom ring 

Gotta get away from 

The same old same 

Let a new day come 

Start over again 

Hey I was stuck in a grind 

Little fish in a little pond 

If I had a criminal mind 

I'd have got myself a gun 

Had to get away from 

The ball and chain 

Let a new day come 

Or start goin' insane 

I'm on my way 

Don't know to where 

But I'm gonna get there 

On my way 

Look at the world 

With my brand new eyes 

I can't believe I feel so high 

I'm on my way tonight 

Hey I was going to seed 

Spreading out like a corn field 

I had so much denial to feed 

I was full of nothing real 

I had to get away from 

My old routine 

Let a new day come 

Start over again 

I'm on my way 

I don't know to where 

But I'm gonna get there 

On my way 

Look at the world 

Through my brand new eyes 

I can't believe I get to feel 

So good 

So high tonight 

Starting tonight 

There will be 

A revival 

In my world 

Turn on the lights 

And you'll see 

This one man band 

Is now a symphony 

And the sun 

Is gonna shine 

Like a summer time 

That has no end 

And the love 

I will find 

I have no doubt 

That it will be mine 

The love I find 

Will all be mine 

I had to get away while 

I could still be saved 

Let a new day come 

Stop digging my grave 

On my way... 

I have faith 

The road up ahead 

Gonna get much easier 

On my way 

Look at me now 

With a brand new life 

I can't believe I feel so high 

I'm on my way tonight 

"...'scuse me, waitress, latte's and scones for everybody!..."
