In my youth I was enchanted
|
Took the good, good life for granted
|
Thought the better things were handed out for free
|
But since then I've learned that living
|
Does require a bit of giving
|
And some things that I'd been missing now I see
|
|
And there was a time when I was slow
|
To lend a helping hand
|
I'm not perfect
|
But I've learned alot since then
|
|
There were times when I thought surely
|
I'd find riches in a hurry
|
And become the judge and jury of my time
|
And the life I thought so splendid
|
Turned before me to be mended
|
Placing realms where I intended not to climb
|
|
And the world that used to fall in step
|
Beneath my guiding hands
|
Is still turning
|
But it's changed alot since then
|
|
Since then (Since then) I've made a new way
|
Since then (Since then) I've found a new day
|
Since then (Since then) the shackles that bound
|
Have been (Have been) unshaclked (un-bound)
|
Since when my pride was always pushing me
|
To be a bigger man
|
I'm still trying and I've learned alot since then
|
|
Since then (Since then) I've made a new way
|
Since then (Since then) I've found a new day
|
Since then (Since then) the shackles that bound
|
Have been (Have been) unshaclked (un-bound)

Since when my pride was always pushing me

I'm still trying and I've learned alot since then
