A Song For The Life Lyrics - Waterboys

(Rodney Crowell) 

I don't drink as much as I used to 

'cos lately that just ain't my style. 

And the hard times don't hurt like they ought'a 

They pass quickly like when I was a child. 

And lately I've learnt how to listen 

To a sound like the sun going down 

In the magic that morning is bringing 

There's a song for the life I have found

It keeps my feet on the ground 

Now the midsummer days ain't so heady 

They just drift like a breeze through my mind. 

And nothing appears in a hurry 

As if to make up for some old long-lost time

And lately I've learnt how to listen 

To a sound like the sun going down 

In the magic that morning is bringing 

There's a song for the friends I have found 

They keep my feet on the ground... 

They keep my feet on the ground... 

They keep my feet on the ground
