Song For The Life Lyrics - Kathy Mattea

(Rodney Crowell) 

I don't drink as much as I used to 

Lately it just ain't my style 

And the hard times don't hurt like they used to 

They pass quicker like when I was a child 

Somehow I learned how to listen 

To a sound like the sun goin' down 

In the magic that morning is bringin' 

There's a song for the life I have found 

It keeps my feet on the ground 

The midsummer days ain't so heavy 

They just flow like the breeze through your mind 

And nothing appears in a hurry 

To make up for some old lost time 

Somehow I learned how to listen 

To a sound like the sun goin' down 

In the magic that morning is bringin' 

There's a song for the life I have found 

It keeps my feet on the ground 

Somehow I learned how to listen 

To a sound like the sun goin' down 

In the magic that morning is bringin' 

There's a song for the life I have found 

It keeps my feet on the ground
