50 things I learned
from Rock n Roll
1) Sometimes

good parts last
3) Trust me friend a
hundred years
Goes faster than you think, so don't blink

of changin'
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older too
5) I may
cross the river jordan
I may face the rising tide
I got a simple plan to get us through these stormy days
hold on to each other find a way
we got to hold on to each other find a way

Passes by just like mine

Here's to a drink that we share
18) Oh, in some ways it's the same
But tonight the crowd they came
Fists in the air, candles and vigils
Cracked dreams held together with curses and wishes
19) Let Love rule
20) Let the rain wash away
all the pain of yesterday
21) I listen to the wind,
to the wind of my soul
Where I'll end up, well, I think only God really
knows

some kind of sign
Trying to hold on in this race against time
I can't say where the next bend might be
That is the beauty in life's mystery
