Truth in Life - Steve Young

Alone in this room, feeling far from comfort,

The rain is softly soothing, but its not quite what you wanted

It’s funny how a feeling, can follow you around,

You try to leave it home, but it always tracks you down

There’s a story I’ve been told, that’s handed down from old

Don’t ever let your life pass you by It’s a story I well know, my mother told me son

Don’t ever let your life pass you by See the palm tree swaying in the greying end of day

Just can’t help but think, how did you end up this way

Breezing on through life, waiting for a chance

To crest that holy mantle we were told was always ours

There’s a story I’ve been told, that’s handed down from old

Don’t ever let your life pass you by It’s a story I well know, my mother told me son

Don’t ever let your life pass you by There’s a truth in life, you can only blame yourself

Everything that lead you here’s a moment you once owned,

There’s a truth in life, no one told you when you’re young,

If you think your owed a favor my friend, you’re sadly wrong

There’s a story I’ve been told, that’s handed down from old

Don’t ever let your life pass you by It’s a story I well know, my mother told me son

Don’t ever let your life pass you by Don’t ever let your life pass you by Don’t ever let your life pass you by
