As the clock ticks and the earth turns
The orbits shift and the fire burns
Peter Pan, Neverland, the Lost Boys
Baby, those ain't nothin' but clever decoys
To lead you astray, lead you away
Convince you that maybe you'll be happy someday
If time could tell the outcome ahead
Perhaps you'd choose a different path instead
But you can't peer forward, can't rewind
No turning back or looking behind
So be content with the present
Don't dwell on the past
And maybe, just maybe
Life won't turn out so bad
