All My Life

All My Life

A Chapter by Shawn Purcell
"

A song about dreams...and reality (And a very confused girl)

"

I just want to rise above,

Live the life I dreamed of

Be free and alive. Earn a good living

And be a loving wife.

 

I walk the line in my sleep

Between the dreams I want and need

I've cashed in a few promises;

I am, who I've been and I will be.

 

Chorus

Oh you’ve come to save me,

I've been waiting all my life for this

The days come and go,

But tomorrow the sun will rise you know.

 

Took a walk through drops of summer

Into the maze I call a life,

Asked a few questions to the rain,

It said get on with the fight.

 

The past is nowhere,

And it really isn't fair.

The future isn't coming,

But one day I will be there.
