How Precious Life Can Be

Music By Michael Skotte – lyrics By Jan Edwards, Lucy LeBlanc & Michael Skotte

When I was younger, I chased my dreams and fame

Blinded by the fire, not playing it safe

Every footstep on the path that led to here

Felt like a race, direction unclear

 

Every wrinkle tells a story, every line etched deep on my face

All those Memories can’t be erased

 

Now that I’m old, I should be wise

But I’ve come to realize

The more that I learn the less I know

Still got a long, long way on this road left to go

And I’m just beginning to open my eyes and see

How precious life can be

 

Somehow the decades went by in the blink of an eye

But Looking in the mirror I still see my younger self smile

If I could turn back time I don’t know if I would

It was worth every misstep that wild child took

 

Every wrong turn, every mistake got me to where I am today

They all somehow pointed me the right way

 

CHORUS

 

I like who I am and where I am right now 

I can’t wait for tomorrow to come around

 

CHORUS
