Today I looked in the mirror
And I caught me by surprise
The man I saw lookin' back at me
I almost didn't recognize

Wasn't I just a kid movin' to Tennessee
With an old guitar and eyes full of stars
Chasin' a crazy dream

But time just seemed to vanish
Right before my eyes
You may not understand it
Why we live with the sacrifice
But it's worth every mile
To get to sing for a while
Truth is I've done it all for free
Always rhymes to be makin'
When you're a dream chaser like me

Last night a new song came to me
Faster than I could write it down
Sometimes I wonder if there'll be another
Then another comes around

Time just seems to vanish
Right before my eyes
You may not understand it
Why we live with the sacrifice
But it's worth every mile
To get to sing for a while
Truth is I've done it all for free
Always rhymes to be makin'
When you're dream chasin' like me
Always rhymes to be makin'
When you're a dream chaser like me
