Life Story - Dick Lee

wake up she said,
look it's a beautiful day
downstairs to the kitchen door
and then away

into the night
morning feeling is on
come the clouds, the moon
and 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 and birthday cake

get up, he said, hurry or you might be late
everyday 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've done
if i were braver, then again i'm not
what can i 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 and birthday cake

when it's time and i must close,
i'll write a book and sign it 'X'
and send it to 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 quite explanatory
would you please start from page one
and please go on
till i'm done
