about
Words and Music by Brent Godfrey and Mark Weeks.
Never stop chasing your dreams. You might not always get what you want but you get what you need.
Never stop chasing your dreams. You might not always get what you want but you get what you need.
lyrics
We used to sing and dance in the rain
Lived our lives in the fast lane
Dreamed and planned for Glory Days
but Reality got in the way
Chase, Chase, Chase, Chasing the Dream
Not everything is what it seems
Chase, Chase, Chase, Chasing the Dream Don’t get what you want you get what you need
We lived for the weekend to get away
From the grind of the day to day
Dreamed of the future and what could be
Then we let go and set us ourselves free
Chorus
Not everything we planned came to be
But you’re still right here next to me
Yeah, you are right here next to me
Lived our lives in the fast lane
Dreamed and planned for Glory Days
but Reality got in the way
Chase, Chase, Chase, Chasing the Dream
Not everything is what it seems
Chase, Chase, Chase, Chasing the Dream Don’t get what you want you get what you need
We lived for the weekend to get away
From the grind of the day to day
Dreamed of the future and what could be
Then we let go and set us ourselves free
Chorus
Not everything we planned came to be
But you’re still right here next to me
Yeah, you are right here next to me
