"Where I Am Now" Lyrics

I've done some foolish things
I've been downright stupid
I've been a sucker for a pretty face
Lord, I was polluted.
When people say, 'Would you go back?'
I say 'No way, nohow'
Because I like where I am now

I took it hard when I found out
That life just isn't fair
I used to bellyache and moan
But now I just don't care
I'm making one last victory lap and then I say goodbye

Where I am now
Father Time is a friend
I feel at home
In my own skin

There ain't no limit to the havoc he can wreak
When a young man slips into his self-destructive streak
I been east, west, north and south
But I made it through somehow
And I like where I am now
You know, I like where I am now,
I said, I like where I am now.

Lyrics and music, Don Henley & Stan Lynch
