Song for Life

Alison Krauss (And Union Station) · Too Late To Cry [Rounder] [1987]

(Rodney Crowell)



I don't drink as much as I used to

Yes, lately that just ain't my style

And the hard times don't last like they used to

They pass more quickly like when I was a child.



Chorus:

And somehow I've learned how to listen

To a sound like the sun goin' down

In the magic the morning is bringing

There's a song for a life I have found

It keeps my feet on the ground.



--- Instrumental ---



The mid summer days ain't so heavy

They just blow like a breeze through your mind

When nothing appears in a hurry

To make up for someone's lost time.



Chorus:

And somehow I've learned how to listen

To a sound like the sun goin' down

In the magic the morning is bringing home

There's a song for a life I have found

It keeps my feet on the ground...
