Been a child in my life, a child in my dreams
It seemed forever
That I'd get ahold of myself in between
Nothin' for certain at least it seemed so anyway
And I was wondering
What I would become or what may
Music was my life, finally took everything
Ain't it funny how you got it all and not a thing
(It's a gift I can sing)
I've got a reason for living each day
I've got a reason for makin' it pay
If it's only for a moment and only my way
I've got a reason, a time and a season
I was takin' it for granted a little more than I should
I had it easy, ummm,
Was life ever doing me good
I had it all written, how the story would end
But I ran out of pages and
I was left all alone with the pen
The story's still got a line and the song'll still rhyme
The names are the same, they're yours and they're mine
(I guess I knew it all the time)
