(Hess)

Well, it was something that took me by surprise

Just when I tried to re-arrange my life

Well then I find out the things that I didn't really want to know

(No, it's not easy, you know it ain't easy)

Trying to get ahead in the world

All of a sudden it came over me and now I finally know

Even the hard times are good times

But I'd do it all over again

Even when I can't see what I've left behind me

I'd do it all over, do it all over again

Noticing now, there's some new things in my life

I try to turn them around, but it's too late to change my mind

(No, it's not easy, you know it ain't easy)

Trying to get ahead in the world

All of sudden it came over me and now I finally know

Chorus
