My  life,  it don't  count for nothing.
When I  look at this world,  I feel so small.
My  life,  it's only  a season:
A  passing September  that  no one will recall.
But  I gave  joy to  my mother.
And  I made  my lover  smile.
And  I can give comfort  to my friends  when they're  hurting.
And  I can  make it seem better  for a while.
My  life,  it's half  the way travelled,
And  still  I have not found my  way out of this night.
An'  my life,  it's tangled  in wishes,
And  so many  things that just never  turned out right.
But  I gave  joy to  my mother.
And  I made  my lover  smile.
And  I can give comfort  to my friends  when they're  hurting.
And  I can  make it seem better
I  can make  it seem better,
I  can make  it seem better  for a while.
Oh,  oh  oh.
Oh  oh.
