Wanted to be more than I am
Wanted to have peace of mind
Should have let the Lord lend a helping hand
But I never gave Him the time
Wish I could sing you a happy song
Wish I could make you smile
When I see my wasted life
There ain't nothin' funny or worth while
'Cause soon my life will be over
Soon my breath will be gone
Soon my days will be finished
And so will this song
There's a message in this song for you
Don't ya live your life like mine
Or you'll end up singing a sad song too
With regret in your heart just like mine
'Cause soon your life will be over
Soon your breath will be gone
Soon your days will be finished
And so will your song
