A song for the life

(Rodney Crowell)



I don't drink as much as I used to

'cos lately that just ain't my style.

And the hard times don't hurt like they ought'a

they pass quickly like when I was a child.



And lately I've learnt how to listen

to a sound like the sun going down

In the magic that morning is bringing

there's a song for the life I have found



It keeps my feet on the ground



Now the midsummer days ain't so heady

they just drift like a breeze through my mind.

And nothing appears in a hurry

as if to make up for some old long-lost time



And lately I've learnt how to listen

to a sound like the sun going down

In the magic that morning is bringing

there's a song for the friends I have found



They keep my feet on the ground...

They keep my feet on the ground...

They keep my feet on the ground
