Nine Days Lyrics
"New Shoes"

When I fell from your good grace
It was all a big mistake
Well I don't do well on the phone
I need to get you all alone
22 years is not enough
To show you proof of my good stuff
I take my wings off at the door
And pick my bones up off the floor

So we've gone
So many miles
In worn out shoes
And I will not lie
'Cause I got the blues
And I wish I knew

Now I'm swimming in the background
Drifting in the lost and found
Born into a Sunday
Maybe I'll be saved someday

Can't be late for your fate 'cause it just won't wait
You grow up and they say that you can't escape
Everyday is your own and it's all you've got
Just a wish and a prayer and another shot

So we've gone
So many miles
In worn out shoes
And I will not lie
'Cause I got the blues
And I wish I knew

And if I had a crystal ball
Baby we all would have one too
And then we'd all know what to do
And maybe we all would tell the truth
22 years and now I'm stuck
So goodbye and so good luck
I see the future in a cup
Sit with me and drink it up

Now I'm swimming in the background
Drifting in the lost and found
Born into a Sunday
Maybe I'll be saved someday

Can't be late for your fate 'cause it just won't wait
You grow up and they say that you can't escape
Everyday is your own and it's all you've got
Just a wish and a prayer and another shot

If you can't find your way, then the way finds you
Everyday you're defined by the things you do
Everyday that you wake you're reborn brand new
So get up find your feet and walk in new shoes again

Walk in new shoes again
Walk in new shoes again
Walk in new shoes again
