My own backyard

wish i could jump from one cloud to the other
run away and get lost in the foggy mist
slide down a rainbow while tasting the rain
on my way back to where it all began

Chorus
didn't know how good i had it then
thought i wanted so much more
now that everything has come my way
i know a truth i didn't know before
didn't have to go so far it was in my own backyard

the things that mean the most don't even cost
things that warm your soul can't be bought with gold
my questions about life seemed so hard
but i found answers in my own backyard

Repeat Chorus
