Since Then Lyrics - The Statler Brothers

In my youth I was enchanted 

Took the good, good life for granted 

Thought the better things were handed out for free 

But since then I've learned that living 

Does require a bit of giving 

And some things that I'd been missing now I see 

And there was a time when I was slow 

To lend a helping hand 

I'm not perfect

And become the judge and jury of my time 

And the life I thought so splendid 

Turned before me to be mended 

Placing realms where I intended not to climb 

And the world that used to fall in step 

Beneath my guiding hands 

Is still turning 

But it's changed alot since then 

Since then (Since then) I've made a new way 

Since then (Since then) I've found a new day 

Since then (Since then) the shackles that bound 

Have been (Have been) unshaclked (un-bound) 

Since when my pride was always pushing me 

To be a bigger man 

I'm still trying and I've learned alot since then 

Since then (Since then) I've made a new way 

Since then (Since then) I've found a new day 

Since then (Since then) the shackles that bound 

Have been (Have been) unshaclked (un-bound) 

Since when my pride was always pushing me 

To be a bigger man 

I'm still trying and I've learned alot since then 

I'm still trying and I've learned alot since the
