When I was a young girl, father said to me

"Life is nothing like a grand symphony"

It's like when you know this one line, sing it and repeat

But you don't recall the rest of the song, it's incomplete

You can spend your whole life trying to recall

Or enjoy the sound you've known

All the words and the melodies, don't they taste sweet?

Why would you go and chase bigger dreams?

When I was a young boy, my father said to me

"Life is nothing like a grand symphony"

Like when you know this one line, sing it and repeat

You don't recall the rest of the song, it's incomplete

You can spend your whole life trying to break free

Or enjoy the home I've made

Or balance it can be disturbed so easily

Why would you go and chase bigger dreams?

When I was a young girl, father said to me

"Life is nothing like a grand symphony"

Like when you know this one line, sing it and repeat

But you don't recall the rest of the song, it's incomplete
