It ain’t the gamble, it’s the chance

It’s the road, it’s not the map

It’s not the answer, it’s the asking

It’s the catch, it’s not the trap

It’s the joy and not the cheering

It’s the key and not the lock

It ain’t solving, it’s the riddle

Not the store but what’s in stock

It ain’t you, it’s who you love

It is time, it’s not the clock

I see your eyes and not your looks

Not the squeezing but the juice

It’s the hole, it’s not the digging

It’s the truth, it’s not the news

It’s not living, it is life

The meaning and not the end

It’s the cut, it ain’t the knife

It’s you’re home, it ain’t the rent

It ain’t speeding, it is driving

Not the white lines but the bend

Not the white lines but the bend

It’s expression, it ain’t cashing

It’s the breeze and not the trees

It’s the cause and not the bashing

It’s a smile and not the cheese

It ain’t liquor, it’s the drinking

It’s not the figure, it’s the count

It’s the floating not the swimming

It’s not where you are but where you’re bound

To know instead of thinking

It’s your heart and it’s the sound

In your heart it’s the sound

It ain’t the buzz, it’s inspiration

It’s the secret not the hype

Build-up, not demolition

It’s the person not the type

No fulfillment, it is hoping

Taking part not being best

It is tasting, not toping

It’s not the case but the test

Not struggling but coping

It’s not the grail but it’s the quest

Not the grail, it’s the quest
