"Song For Life" lyrics

"Song For Life"

I don't drink as much as I used to
Yeah lately, it just ain't my style
And hard times don't last like they used to
They pass quicker, like when I was a child

And somehow I've learned how to listen
To a sound like a sun going down
In the magic the morning is bringing
A song for the life I have found
It keeps my feet on the ground

The midsummer days sit so heavy
But don't they flow like a breeze through your mind?
When nothing appears in a hurry
To make up for someone's lost time

Somehow I've learned how to listen
To the sound like a sun going down
In the magic the morning is bringing home
A song for a life I have found
It keeps my feet on the ground
