It's My Life I Wrote

It's my life I wrote, Full of minor notes
It's a funny slide, Only life provides

When I climb up to the top of the score
Pretty sure it's because I just want more
When I see things from the measure I've reached
That's when I know that it's lessons that teach

Climbing high is not the goal
It's the journey life extols
Set your key and just step out
Soon you'll see what's it's about

It's my life I sing, full of happy things
It's a scary trail, lessons when I fail

When it is time for the intro to start
I know the verse will explain all my heart
That crescendo will carry me away
Until I rest at the end of my day

Playing loud is not the best
My dynamics set the test
Choose my pitch to get it done
Intervals I'll have some fun

It's my dreams I hoard, full of major chords
It's a tempo thing, back and forth I swing

As I strive to just fulfill all my dreams
I realize my life isn't what it seems
I am living between the ledger lines
And convincing myself that I am fine

It's the measure of my soul
Decides the parts from the whole
When the tempo starts to peak
Hopefully a winning streak

It's my life I lived, trying to forgive
Lived it as a song, hope it's not too long

When I move up through the end of my piece
Not supposed to know the time it will cease
I use my signature to set the mood
And hope my life is not an interlude

Harmonizing through my life
Try my best to evade strife
In the bridge I am solo
Came to soon is the Coda

It's my life I sing, Full of major swings
Its a lovely ride, Only life provides

It's my life I lived, trying to forgive
Lived it as a song, hope it's not too long

Its a lovely ride, Only life provides
