Morningside

Am I a fool at this late date To heed a voice that says, You can be great I heard it young, now I hear it again It says, you can be better than you've ever been Chorus: Don't want to waste what I have to give In all of the time that I've left to live Don't want to waste what I have to give In any of the time that I've got left I can do more than I thought I could Work brings more luck than knocking on wood There's random bad and random good Work brings more good luck You ask the world And the world says, no It's the world's refrain Mine says, go You ask the world And the world says, no It's an old world refrain Mine says, go Chorus: Don't want to waste what I have to give In all of the time that I've left to live Don't want to waste what I have to give In any of the time that I've got left I can do more than I thought I could Work brings more luck than knocking on wood There's random bad and random good Work brings more good luck Better be off I've got dreams to dream Though it seems uphill and a little extreme If I can find hope in this fading light Then I'll find you on the morningside
