A song about something most of don't do, live.
Singer/Songwriter
I'm a singer/songwriter.
Story behind the song
Something I'd forgotten how to do, so I decided to write about it.
Lyrics
Livin’
J. Michael Tracy male vocal/mid-tempo
No one had, a better life
Two great kids, and a pretty wife
But he threw it all, away
For the bottle, they could not stay cause he’d
Drowned their life, in sorrow
He wrecked his future, killed tomorrow
He begged God, for a second chance
And found the answers, in these two questions
How much time are we given
Are we dyin’ or are we livin’
It’s a choice, we hold in our hands
And we’ll make it, you know we can so
Don’t put off till tomorrow
To say I love you
Cause no one borrows
From time that’s in God’s hands
It’s what we’re given
So let’s spend our time
Livin’
He couldn’t fall, any farther
So badly beaten, lost his armor
That he bared, his soul to the sky
Swore he’d give it up, was that or die, so he
Journeyed back to the simple life
Regained his family, loved his wife
He thanked God for this second chance
And the wisdom, in those questions
(chorus)
(tag)
Let’s spend our time
Livin’
