I close my front door and turn on the light I let out a breath and hold in a sigh Ain't nothin' new, ain't that much in sight And if I'm counting days, dream fruition ain't what it's looking like But strictly speaking, I'm still on track Strictly speaking, I'm holding on More than a minor setback But strictly speaking, I'm still on track And all of my dreams are still in sight Strictly speaking, I've got my whole life I lost a wheel a while back But strictly speaking, I'm still on track Trouble keeps falling in my lap Strung out again, but still on track I know it's unrealistic, over-optimistic I know I tried before this, I know it's nearly August I know I can't ignore this, looking forward to all this Sayin', "Babe, I just adore this" and, "Babe, can we afford this?" I know it's been a slow year, nothin' much to show here I didn't really go for it, so not a lot to show for it The hardest part is over, adjusting makes it slower So glad you're coming over, I want to bring us closer The world ain't changin' for ya, nothin' to lose it over We're just a shuttle over, the rest comes easy The rest comes easy ('Cause life's like that) But strictly speaking, I'm still on track Strictly speaking, I'm holding back Troubles keep falling in my lap, yeah But strictly speaking, I'm still on track So tell everyone I'll be alright 'Cause strictly speaking, I've got my whole life More than a major setback But strictly speaking, I'm still on track (Yeah) The hardest part is over, adjusting makes it slower So glad you're coming over, I want to bring us closer The world ain't waitin' for ya, nothin' to lose it over I just kept getting older, the rest gets easy The rest gets easy
