You've Gotta Get There First

Tell me where you're from, and I'll tell you where to go from here

no matter how far, how close, or how near

ohhhh, I...

the paths ahead are clear to see

at least they appear that way to me

no matter which one that you choose, you can end up as a loser

it's what you do on the path that counts ... not what you do on the way back

you've gotta get there first.

so ya tripped...?

so ya slipped...?

so ya fell on your chin?

... well, that's no reason to do it again

same old sin

tell me where you're from, and I'll tell you where to go from here

my place? my place is very, very near

come with me, my dear... I'll show ya how it'll be, with me !
