Anywhere But Here

My reflection has changed since my earlier years but only slightly can you tell Eyes give away the secrets of the soul it's my voice I will have to sell and it leaves me thinking, anywhere but here Trinkets and gadgets hung around the store the place filled with dust Most people just walked on by allowing my forgotten shop to fall apart and rust and I am thinking, anywhere but here I sit for days, and patiently wait for a customer to stumble inside the longer I wait, the more weary I grow and still no one, not even a hi now I am wishing, anywhere but here The menacing shops that surround me are like poison in my veins my shop fought hard, but still no luck they had corporations at the reins now I yearn, anywhere but here On a quiet day not long ago a man entered my store He told me his name, and why he had came Now I wanted to hear more I don't want to be anywhere but here An opportunist by nature and a salesman at heart I made a deal with the nice fellow and got enough for a new start now I can go anywhere but here As I look at my shop I think of all the times we shared the memories i will never forget that makes me scared can I go anywhere but here? Now I am on the beach sipping from my drink I am now head of a corporate chain and i can't help but think I can't imagine, anywhere but here
