Turning Point

David Wilcox · Turning Point [1997]

Just one turn to steer your fate

Or wait for fate to spin you

Your trusting's fine but much too blind

Your compass is within you



These days pass you yearning

Like empty pages turning

You're holding out for something real, oh yeah



You can't play pretender

Because you still remember

Just how full your heart can feel



But how long the distance

Getting by and getting through

Your heart's strong insistence

Says that nothing else will do



But you could try on their distractions

And wear some empty compromise

But it's hard to breathe inside

Some cheap disguise



You can live your life completely

That true path, you're here to find

Or stay scared, leave your destiny behind

It's right now, here's the turning point in time



But just one thing can kill this dream

To compromise your vision

We find our truth or live some lie

It rides on this decision



Meanwhile those other voices

Hurry up and rush your choices

Try to second guess your fate, oh yeah



You can't wait forever

Gotta pull yourself together

Feel the time is running late



Well, this time right now

The turning point is here

So look deep, see clear

Soon your chance will disappear



Or you could drift into distraction

Wear that empty compromise

But it's hard to breathe inside

That cheap disguise



You can live your life completely

That true path, you're here to find

Or stay scared, leave your destiny behind

It's right now, here's the turning point in time

Here's the turning point in time

Here's the turning point in time
