70 years

First song that I only wrote just the lyrics to:)

70 Years

I get up when the sunlight

Breaks up the night in my eyes

Or when the alarm goes off

Early to wake up my wife

I eat breakfast sometimes

In the middle of the night

But rush out the door

Most of the time without trying

The work day goes by so slow

The older I get the faster time goes

The hand that holds back our dreams

Has bigger and better things

Waiting in his wings

_ I’ve built bridges and torn some down

climbed up broken latters and fallen to the gorund

I gotta thank mr duritz for listening to spiritual things

Jesus spoke to me through you

Said do not forget about me.

70 years in the blink of an eye

don’t let regret be a cancer in your life

take a risk a go ahead full steam

cause even if you fall off the mountain

eventually you’ll land in your dreams

it is not what seems

so don’t shut that door

I hear a knocking at my door

At an inconvienient time

I get up from fear

He still talks tto me about dying

When I open up the door

There is a train outside

The whistle blows and I know

This is my last time

Well I looked up and said

Who is driving this thing

They said hey boy get on

Just sit back relax

And don’t you worry bout a thing

_well I’ve planted trees and I’ve burned some down

I’ve eaten seeds and spit them out my mouth

I’ve gotta thank patty and russ for all they’ve done

Cause at times I wanted a change

But in the end I’m thankfull to be there son

70 years in the blink of an eye

don’t let regret be a cancer in your life

take a risk a go ahead full steam

cause even if you fall off the mountain

eventually you’ll land in your dreams

it is not what seems

so don’t shut that door

at 23 now I can look back

and say I don’t know

I was arrogant then when

All that came out of mouth

Was I told you so

70 years seems so long from now

but in a blink of an eye

its all gone2X
