From the recording Painting From The Past
Lyrics
Written by Matt Dratva
Life shouldn’t be considered hard
Although people claim it to be
Rushing to work in the early mornin’
Is something we do
But we’d rather be free
Only to do it all over again
And count the days
When we can pack it in
And look into each other’s eyes
And both ask the same question
Where did the time go
Where did the time go
It seems like yesterday
We played on the swings
And now our days are
Taken by so many things
We need to stop and look around us
Cause before you know it
Life’s come and gone
So cherish every moment
Whether happy, whether sad
Some are here for a short time
Some are here for long
Some are here for a short time
Not many are here for long
If we keep that in mind
And look forward to the next day
We’ll realize life ain’t hard
It only seems that way
