Woke up in the morning, traveling straight into the sun
Told my friends and family I was gone
Looked back in the mirror, thought about who I had become
And, I don't think that anything's gone wrong
Jumped out of my suitcase, and went traveling down the road
Went back to the place that I was born
Thinking about my future, thinking 'bout how far we have come
Oh, I don't think I'm going to be going home
And the day goes on, goes on, goes on, goes on, and the day goes on
And the day goes on, goes on, goes on, hold on, and the day goes on
Went down to Virginia, thinking 'bout how to change my name, just in case I have to fly away
Jumped into my spaceship, and I went to outer space, and now I think I'm going to be okay
And the day goes on, goes on, goes on, goes on, and the day goes on
And the day goes on, goes on, hold on, whenst the day goes (on)
And I'm long gone
And I'm long gone
And I'm right where I belong
I went to the future, thinking 'bout how to spend my day, thinking 'bout the things I can't explain
It's 1900 and the times are going to change, oh now I think we're going to be okay
And the day goes on, goes on, goes on, goes on, and it goes along
And the day goes on, hold on, hold on, stay strong, and the day goes on
