Life Means So Much Lyrics - Smell The Color Nine - Chris Rice

Every day is a journal page 

Every man holds a quill and ink 

And there's plenty of room for writing in 

All we do is believe and think 

So will you compose a curse 

Or will today bring the blessings? 

Fill the page with rhyming verse 

Or some random sketching 

Teach us to count the days 

Teach us to make the days count 

Lead us in better ways 

Somehow our souls forgot 

Life means so much, life means so much, life means so much 

Every day is a bank account 

And time is our currency 

So no one's rich, nobody's poor 

We get twenty-four hours each 

So how are you gonna spend 

Will you invest or squander 

Try to get ahead 

Or help someone who's under 

Teach us to count the days 

Teach us to make the days count 

Lead us in better ways 

Somehow our souls forgot 

Life means so much, life means so much, life means so much 

Has anybody lived who knew the value of a life 

And don't you think giving is all will prove the worth of yours and mine? 

Teach us to count the days 

Teach us to make the days count 

Lead us in better ways 

Somehow our souls forgot 

Life means so much 

Every day is a gift you've been given 

Make the most of the time every minute you're living 

Every day is a gift you've been given 

Make the most of the time every minute you're living 

Lead us in better ways 

Somehow our souls forgot 

Life means so much, life means so much, life means so much 

Every day is a gift you've been given 

Make the most of the time every minute you're living
