lyrics

My music fortifies my soul keeps me grounded
stitches me back together when I’m falling apart
puts the pieces back where they belong before long
chords and melodies sustain me help me grow I know
there’s plenty still to come when I’m done I’ll hold no grudge
I’ll let you be the judge If I left my mark If I carried the spark
If I even knocked it out of the park.

Because I’m living the dream, yes I’m living the dream.

I wasn’t the best certainly not the worst
I dealt with my curse of anonymity
the place where I grew where nobody knew
how I tried in vain to show some of my pain
the way that I play the joy that I could bring
I hope that my creativity and insatiable appetite
for original musical expression
carries on from me to you within this song.

And I’m living the dream, living the dream.

Living the dream living the dream
I’ve got a home and a car and a big huge screen
I’ve got food in the fridge and fish in a tank
I’ve even got my health a little money in the bank.
I can pay my bills I’m still looking for thrills
I can walk by the sea nothing terrifies me
I’ve got all this stuff on any given day
I might just decide to give it all away.

Music is my religion my studio is my church
my songs are my hymns to me they mean so much
the things I have created are drawn from somewhere deep inside
the melodies and harmonies sometimes fill my heart with pride
there are no hidden agendas my lyrics speak of simple things
the world will not be changed by me I speak directly to you
although we’ve never met we’ll never know the future
parts of the past we will forget.
