LYRIC FOR SALE

By Michael Be

I MET A WOMAN IN THE PARK TODAY
OLD AND FRAIL BUT WITH PLENTY TO SAY
I LISTENED CLOSE
THERE'S SO MUCH I CAN LEARN
THAT GENTLE WISDOM TAKES A LIFETIME TO EARN

CHORUS

AND I HOPE
ONE DAY
I CAN SHARE
ALL THE LESSONS I'VE LEARNED
HERE AND THERE
ALL THE WISDOM I'VE HEARD
ALL THE INSIGHTS CONFERRED
ALL THE TIMES
THAT I'VE LAID
MYSELF BARE

BRIDGE

NO TWO PATHS LEAD TO JUST ONE PLACE
NO TWO STORIES THE SAME
YOU GOT TO LEARN TO GROW AT YOUR OWN PACE
FIND THE RULES TO YOUR GAME

THERE'S NO RIGHT OR WRONG IN THIS WHOLE STRANGE PLACE
ONLY PLEASURE AND PAIN
DO YOUR BEST TO PUT ON A BRAVE FACE
AND COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS BY NAME

CHORUS


AND I HOPE
ONE DAY
I CAN SHARE
ALL THE LESSONS I'VE LEARNED
HERE AND THERE
ALL THE WISDOM I'VE HEARD
ALL THE INSIGHTS CONFERRED
ALL THE TIMES
THAT I'VE LAID
MYSELF BARE


VERSE

I FELT HER BEAUTY IT WAS CLEAR FROM THE START
SHE SPOKE WITH CARE AND A PURE OPEN HEART
AS MANY STORIES AS THERE'S LINES ON HER FACE
A LIFE WELL LIVED FULL OF KINDNESS AND GRACE

CHORUS

AND I HOPE
ONE DAY
I CAN SHARE
ALL THE LESSONS I'VE LEARNED
HERE AND THERE
ALL THE WISDOM I'VE HEARD
ALL THE INSIGHTS CONFERRED
ALL THE TIMES
THAT I'VE LAID
MYSELF BARE

ALL THE TIMES
THAT I'VE LAID
MYSELF BARE
