Tommy Körberg - Chess In Concert: Where I Want To Be (1989)

Who needs a dream who needs ambition
Who'd be the fool in my position
Once I had dreams now they're obsessions
Hopes became needs lovers possessions
Then they move in oh so discreetly
Slowly at first smiling too sweetly
I opened doors they walked right through them
Called me their friend I hardly knew them
Now I'm where I want to be and who I want to be and doing what I
always said I would and yet I feel I haven't won at all
Running for my life and never looking back in case there's
someone right behind to shoot me down and say he always knew I'd fall.
When the crazy wheel slows down
Where will I be? Back where I started.
Don't get me wrong I'm not complaining
Times have been good fast, entertaining
But what's the point if I'm concealing
Not only love all other feeling.
Now I'm where I want to be and who I want to be and doing what I
always said I would and yet I feel I haven't won at all
Running for my life and never looking back in case there's
someone right behind to shoot me down and say he always knew I'd fall
When the crazy wheel slows down
Where will I be? Back where I started
