Lyrics
There was a time in my life
I searched for something I felt that I had to prove
So I crossed a great distance for something to show
And the wanting of it got me through
So I took all I'd known and I left my home
And little brother behind
Now the more that I get the freedom I want
The more that I find
The having of it
The having of it
Ain't like what you think
It's more of a dream
A little flower crushed in my hands
No I ain't saying now
That I regret how that light shown from afar
And haunted the miles where I lingered a while
With my heart chained up in the stars
But I can't seem to shake, I can only relate
To a prison of my design
For when I reach out to take
I don't find that it's ever really mine
The having of it
The having of it
Ain't like what you think
It's more of a dream
A little flower crushed in my hands
