Been down the road to work and back
Been in what I thought was love a few times
But every once in a while I stop and ask
Where have I been all my life?

These days brocolli don't taste so bad
and neither does swallowing my pride
and I'm agreeing more and more with my ole man
Where have I been all my life?

Some years are clear and some a little blury
Man how they fly by
Mom and dad sure got old in a hurry
Where have I been all my life?

Been learning that forgivness is
as much for myself as it is for the other guy
and I read the good book these days and believe it
Where have I been all my life?

Some years are clear and some a little blury
Man how they fly by
Mom and dad sure got old in a hurry
Where have I been all my life

I heard what a wonderful world
by lois armstrong
And brought a tear to my eyes
after all these years I finally get that song
Where have I been all my life?
