Truth in Life

Alone in this room, feeling far from comfort,
The rain is softly soothing, but its not quite what you wanted
It’s funny how a feeling, can follow you around,
You try to leave it home, but it always tracks you down
There’s a story I’ve been told, that’s handed down from old
Don’t ever let your life pass you by It’s a story I well know, my mother told me son
Don’t ever let your life pass you by See the palm tree swaying in the greying end of day
Just can’t help but think, how did you end up this way
Breezing on through life, waiting for a chance
To crest that holy mantle we were told was always ours
There’s a story I’ve been told, that’s handed down from old
Don’t ever let your life pass you by It’s a story I well know, my mother told me son
Don’t ever let your life pass you by There’s a truth in life, you can only blame yourself
Everything that lead you here’s a moment you once owned,
There’s a truth in life, no one told you when you’re young,
If you think your owed a favor my friend, you’re sadly wrong
There’s a story I’ve been told, that’s handed down from old
Don’t ever let your life pass you by It’s a story I well know, my mother told me son
Don’t ever let your life pass you by Don’t ever let your life pass you by Don’t ever let your life pass you by
