It's Been a Wonderful Life
It's been a wonderful life.
Iv'e laughed and iv'e cried.
Iv'e watched people live,
And iv'e watched people die.
It's been a wonderful life.
Iv'e seen the good and the bad.
Iv'e felt times of joyfulness,
Others i felt sad.
It's been a wonderful life.
Iv'e known jealousy and anger.
Times when i was safe.
Times where there was danger.
It's been a wonderful life.
Iv'e traveled and iv'e learned.
Saved some bridges as sacred,
Others i had to burn.
It's been a wonderful life.
I have tried so many things.
Iv'e faced my fears throughout the years,
And even wore wedding rings.
It's been a wonderful life.
Though there were times of struggle.
Moments that were overwhelming,
Too many things to juggle.
It's been a wonderful life.
Iv'e been well and iv;e had pain.
Moments where i was invincible,
Moments where i went insane.
It's been a wonderful life.
Despite some atrocities.
There was a lot of greatness too.
A bright side of humanity.
It's been a wonderful life.
Though there was some angst.
If i hadn't had it,
There'd be nothing to fight against.
It's been a wonderful life.
I take it all in stride.
The world is always spinning,
So just enjoy the ride.
