Life Story

"Wake up", she said

Look, it's a beautiful day

Downstairs, hear the kitchen door

And then wait

Into the light

Morning feeling lives on

Come the clouds, the moon

Morning is gone

Born today some years ago

And had a happy childhood

But I fell in love and out

Nothing's changed

Lived a life of nothing much

But then how much can one expect?

So there you are, my life has gone

But I'm the same

Just my life story, minute by second a story

That goes on forever with each breath that I take

This is my life story, uneventful, a story

That ages with each year in birthday cake

"Get up", he said

Hurry or you might be late

Every day you hurry off

To keep your date

Learn something new

What are you hoping to prove?

Make some money, find a wife

Have a kid or two

Thinking back, I like to dream

Of things I would have done

If I were braver, then again I'm not

What's there to do?

Maybe if I had another chance

I'd go into my past

And make my life a better one

For me and you

Just my life story, minute by second a story

That goes on forever with each breath that I take

This is my life story, uneventful, a story

That ages with each year in birthday cake

When it's time and I must close

I'll write a book and sign it X

And send it some true romance type

Magazine somewhere

Then the world will read of me

And say there lived a hero

But too late my friends and enemies

I guess life isn't fair

So my life story is self explanatory

Won't you please start from page one?

And do go on till I am done

Till I am done, till I am done
