SOMEWHERE I'VE NEVER BEEN

One small bag

On the passenger seat

Coffee getting cold

Beside the keys

I picked a town

I couldn't pronounce

Three hours away

And headed out

No one waiting

No place to be

Just an open road

In front of me

For once

I didn't need a reason

I just wanted

Something different

Take me somewhere

I've never been

Past the roads

I already know

Somewhere nobody

Knows my name

Somewhere I can

Start from zero

I don't need

A perfect destination

Just a road

I've never seen

Take me somewhere

I've never been

Stopped for lunch

In a little town

Sat by the window

And looked around

Bought a postcard

I won't send

Walked through streets

Without checking the time

Got a little lost

Near half past three

For the first time

That felt good to me

Maybe getting lost

Isn't always wrong

Maybe that's how

You find something new

Take me somewhere

I've never been

Where the signs

Don't look familiar

Let me wake up

Without a plan

And decide

When morning gets here

I spent too long

Knowing every answer

Now I want

A little mystery

Take me somewhere

I've never been

I used to think

I needed someone

To tell me

Where to go

Now the road is quiet

And somehow

I don't feel alone

Take me somewhere

I've never been

Past the last place

On my old map

Let me see

A different sunrise

Through a window

I've never had

Maybe I won't

Stay there forever

Maybe I'll leave

The very next day

But I'll come home

Knowing something

I didn't know

When I drove away

There's still a world

I haven't seen

And there's still more

To me

Somewhere

I've never been

No address

No plan

Keep going

I kept the old map

Inside a drawer

Places I wanted

To see before

A train ticket

I never used

A list of things

I said I'd do

Somewhere between

Work and getting home

I stopped asking

Where I wanted to go

Everyone looked

So far ahead

I thought I'd missed

My chance instead

Maybe it's not too late

To change the road I'm on

Not too late

To want something different

I don't need to know

Where this will take me

I just need one step

That feels like mine

Maybe it's not too late

I found that notebook

Under my bed

Half of the pages

Still empty there

Some dreams changed

Some disappeared

Somehow that didn't

Feel sad this year

I opened the window

Let the morning in

For once I didn't ask

Where I should've been

I packed one bag

Turned off the light

No perfect plan

Just Friday night

Maybe it's not too late

To take the longer way

Not too late

To start without permission

I spent too long

Watching other lives move

Now I want to see

What happens with mine

Maybe it's not too late

You don't have to

Catch up to anyone

I know

I think I'm finally

Starting to believe that

Then go

Yeah

I think I will

It's not too late

To change the road I'm on

Not too late

To leave some things unfinished

I don't need

A brand-new version of me

I just want a life

That feels more like mine

There's still a place

I've never seen

Still a morning

I haven't met

So I'll take the keys

And choose a road

I don't know yet

It's not too late

I'm going

I'll figure out

The rest on the way
