Further Down The Line

Well, I used to dream about falling in love
Finding my own little lovey dove
But ever since that dream came true
I've been looking for something new
Oh, I used to dream about a beautiful wife
Now I dream about a different life
The grass is greener on the other side
Got a hungry heart I just can't hide

Oh, no matter how I try
I can't satisfy this heart of mine
Paradise is always
Just a little further down the line

Well, I used to dream about a fine old car
Found it last summer and I drove off far
Bird nest in the back and a drop top too
This year it just won't do
And I used to dream about fortune and fame
Now I've found it's just a shallow game
Today I'm looking for something real
'Cause emptiness is all I feel

Oh, no matter how I try
I can't satisfy this heart of mine
Paradise is always
Just a little further down the line

You spend your whole life trying to reach your goal
But every gold mine turns to coal
Like a dog I'm chasing a rabbit's tail
I'm sometimes close but I always fail
So I keep on running, but I'm running blind
This race is bringing no peace of mind
Been chasing things my whole life through
Now I don't know what to do

Oh, no matter how I try
I can't satisfy this heart of mine
Paradise is always
Just a little further down the line
Oh, no matter how I try
I can't satisfy this heart of mine
Paradise is always
Just a little further down the line
Just a little further down the line
Just a little further down the line
