Directions

Carole King

They tell me

When I've got my life on my mind

They're sorry

But they can't do a thing about it till tomorrow



I tell them

Now I don't want a lot of your time

Maybe they listen

Oh, but what do they know of my pain and my sorrow



Oooh, what will it cost you

After how many tears I've cried

How much longer must I try



Directions presenting themselves every day

Are bypassed

'Cause of somebody else's foolish limitations



Rejections - many have I had in my way

But I go on, yes, I do now, and try to overcome the bad vibrations



Oooh, what does it get you

Stealing somebody else's pride

How much longer must I cry



I can see all the things of which I've dreamed

If I dream any longer-what will it mean



Reflections

Of all I have wanted so long

Still are with me

As I ask myself how much longer must I try
