life of my own

who doesn't know what im talkin' about???
who's never left home, who's never struck out?..
to find a dream and a life of their own.
a place in the clouds, a foundation of stone.
...
she needs wide open spaces
room to make her big mistakes
she needs new faces
she knows the highest stakes
...
she traveled this road as a child
wide-eyed and grinning, she never tired.
but now she won't be coming back with the rest
if these are life's lessons, she'll take this test.

...she needs wide open spaces.
