A Life In Song(s)

It seems like I've been here before;
I can't remember when;
But I have this funny feeling;
That we'll all be together again.
No straight lines make up my life;
And all my roads have bends;
There's no clear-cut beginnings;
And so far no dead-ends.
(Harry Chapin)

When I was younger so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors
(The Beatles)

Well, I'm here to tell you now
each and evry mothers son
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,
cause, someday never comes.
(Creedence Clearwater Revival)

That's the way that the world goes 'round!
You're up one day,
the next you're down!
It's half an inch of water
and you think you're gonna drown
That's the way that the world goes 'round.
(John Prine)

And if I stand or I fall
It's all or nothing at all
Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

No I don't know why I go to extremes
Too high or too low
There ain't no in-betweens
You can be sure when I'm gone
I won't be out there too long
Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
(Billy Joel)

So many times Ive seen chances disappear
I hesitate and watch them slip away
Like the time I fail to spend with the ones I love
And its gone as sure as yesterday
All these users and fakers, big time takers
Manipulating everyone they see
I get caught up in their schemes and their useless dreams
And the only one I have to blame is me
I get turned `round and twisted, pulled left and right
I can see where I'm goin, but I cant see the light

Time to lock and load
Come in from the cold
Take a different road
And start again
(Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band)

Well we all shine on,
Like the moon and the stars and the sun,
Well we all shine on,
Ev'ryone come on.

Instant Karma's gonna get you,
Gonna knock you off your feet,
Better recognize your brothers,
Ev'ryone you meet,
Why in the world are we here,
Surely not to live in pain and fear,
Why on earth are you there,
When you're ev'rywhere,
Come and get your share.
(John Lennon)

One of these days,
I'm gonna sit down
and write a long letter
To all the good friends I've known
And I'm gonna try
And thank them all
for the good times together.
Though so apart we've grown.
(Neil Young)

Everyday is a winding road
I get a little bit closer
Everyday is a faded sign
I get a little bit closer to feeling fine
(Sheryl Crow)

Raise up your hands
And put a smile on your face
Im talking to everyone
In the human race
Were proud and strong
So stand up tall
Lets all get together
Bring peace to the world
(B.B. King)
