John Richard Paul

Lyrics

Hell, we’ve come this far, what’s one more mile in the grand scheme of things?
No sense in trying to start over, might as well just work with what we’ve got
Make the best of things and hope that all the rest will one day follow suit and fall in line

Coz lord knows we’ve put in our time
Spending our better years
Hoping something more might come
Yet knowing full well
This might be as far as we go

So let’s strip this down, right to the bones
The foundation is sound, of that we can be sure
Strong backs and hands, midwestern modesty, an unwillingness just to pack it in
Where others might’ve had more sense, we just kept our noses to the grind

And continue to put in our time
Spending our better years
Counting down each passing mile
Knowing full well
The road ahead is quickly running out

Lord knows we’ve put in our time
Spending our better years
Hoping something more might come
Yet knowing full well
This might be as far as we go
This might be as far as we go
