Waterboys - A Song for The Life lyrics

(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
