Max Poynor - Ought to be Lyrics

One day I'll drive away in my brand new car and choose what music plays
And he won't get a say in the things I do or my day-to-day
But I'll dust off my knees
Just smile and say "Cheese"
Cos' you won't believe
The wasted time, all the wasted lines
But, maybe it's just superstition
Or some crazy premunition
That keeps me from losing my mind
And I thank you for asking
When I get the answers I'll pass in
And I'll show you what I've found
Here's how it sounds
I don't know where to start
But even when the ache inside of my heart gets the better of me
I'm tired of how I've been so dishonest constantly
But honestly (honestly)
There's just no stopping me (won't let him knock me)
One day I will achieve
The man I ought to be
So January's come around, judging by the sound of rain beating down
But it won't get to me, not overwhelmed but free, providing energy
So I'll, I'll lace up my shoes
Just stop singing the blues
It's time I refuse
To be wasting time, Interrupting my mind
But, well maybe it's just superstition
Or some crazy premunition
That keeps me from falling behind
And no, I thank you for asking
When I get the answers I'll pass in
And I'll hope that you're around
Here's how it sounds
I don't know where to start
But even when the ache inside of my heart gets the better of me
I'm tired of how I've been so dishonest constantly
But honestly (honestly)
There's just no stopping me (won't let him knock me)
One day I will achieve
The man I ought to be
If you had asked me a year ago, where would I be? I wouldn't know
If you had asked me a year ago, where would I be? I wouldn't know
If you had asked me a year ago, where would I be? I wouldn't know
If you had asked me a year ago, I'd say to you
"I've got no hope"
Cos' I don't know where to start
But even when the ache inside of my heart gets the better of me
I'm tired of how I've been so dishonest constantly
But honestly (honestly)
There's just no stopping me (won't let him knock me)
One day I will achieve
The man I ought to be
