Stages

Time to take life in stages
Fireworks in July, pages turn
I'm doing it my own way
Until the year is done I will pray that

Something sent you my way
Take your coat off and stay for a little while
I'll help you carry the load
So you don't have to walk
Down that same old road

This is a new style of life
Leaves fall in October, stages burn
I'm doing it my own way
As the winter brings cold
I will pray that

Something sent you my way
Take your coat off and stay for a little while
I'll help you carry the load
So you don't have to walk
Down that same old road

I can't explain this to you
I can't explain how I feel now
Just don't run away
Don't run away when I scream

Time to take life in stages
Fireworks in July, pages turn
I'm doing it my own way
Until the year is done I will pray that

Something sent you my way
Take your coat off and stay for a little while
I'll help you carry the load
So you don't have to walk
Down that same old road
That Same Old Road
