[00:10.66]I wish I could give you an answer
[00:15.64]As to when life really begins
[00:20.69]I wish I could tell you where we went
[00:25.96]When our days here come to an end
[00:31.62]Wish I could see the future
[00:36.38]The same way I see the past
[00:41.27]Wish I could draw a conclusion
[00:46.37]Why nothing here seems to last
[00:53.58]I can't even make a guess
[00:59.56]Or an uneducated thought
[01:04.14]All I can do here is my best
[01:09.16]And be thankful for what we've got
[01:13.71]
[01:32.46]Why do so many suffer
[01:38.05]Oppressed to the end of time
[01:43.32]Why does freedom move so slowly
[01:48.03]Unable to speak it's mind
[01:53.16]Some say it's a circle
[01:58.40]Others think we live on the wing
[02:03.61]Why are promises broken
[02:08.73]And some think life don't mean a thing
[02:15.86]I can't even make a guess
[02:21.98]Or an uneducated thought
[02:26.60]All I can do here is my best
[02:31.57]And be thankful for what we've got
[02:35.99]
[02:54.60]I hope you can be a child of life
[02:59.90]With big dreams for everyone
[03:05.50]And know that dying's as natural as birth
[03:10.00]And our troubles here they don't last long
[03:16.01]I have worried about many things
[03:21.03]Most of which did not come to pass
[03:25.81]Hope you find someone to give you love
[03:31.18]And that your love will last
[03:38.38]I can't even make a guess
[03:43.20]Or an uneducated thought
[03:48.90]All I can do here is my best
[03:53.31]And be thankful for what we've got
[04:01.02]We've got
