"Skipping Stones" lyrics

"Skipping Stones"

I know we've been around the same old town
But suddenly the weather's changed
No, it's not Hollywood but maybe soon
I'm gonna make myself a name

So won't you give me some sunshine in my soul
Cutting my teeth on solid gold
Skipping my stones on waterfalls
Nothing but blue skies in my head
I don't care if I wind up dead
Chasing that feeling in my chest
God knows I'm ready for it

If you want more
Tell me why the hell I'm waiting for the encore
All my dreams are ricocheting out the front door
Out the front door
Do you want more?
Never been a skater but I'm pulling 1-80s out on the daily
All the haters saying I'm dreaming too big, drives me crazy
But I'd rather be dreaming
Don't wanna give myself a ceiling

Give me some sunshine in my soul
Cutting my teeth on solid gold
Skipping my stones on waterfalls
Nothing but blue skies in my head
I don't care if I wind up dead
Chasing that feeling in my chest
God knows I'm ready for it, hey

Life is just a game you gotta play till you get old
So puff your chest and wish the best to everyone you know
Your life is just a game you gotta play till you get old
So puff your chest and wish the best to everyone you know

Give me some sunshine in my soul cutting my teeth on solid gold

Life is just a game you gotta play till you get old
So puff your chest and wish the best to everyone you know
Your life is just a game you gotta play till you get old
So puff your chest and wish the best to everyone you know
