Lyrics
?Why Not Me?
Verse
Well I?m sure my friends had all the best intentions
When they told me I should only dream at night
It?s funny that they never seemed to mention
That anything worth having is worth the fight
Verse
Not everyone can make the same decisions
Not everyone will make the same mistakes
But I can?t let the doubts I hear convince me
I know that I have just what it takes.
Pre Chorus
So whether it?s to write a song
Or whether it?s work the farm
Or whether it?s to pilot to the moon
Chorus
Why not me I know the mountains high
Why not now And dreams can live or die
Why not try I gotta try, try, try
Why not me I hear that voice inside
Why not now Screaming clear and loud
Why not try I gotta try, try, try
Verse
Life is full of choice and full of chances
And it?s what we do that makes us who we are
And I can?t chug along inside a slow train
I rather catch a ride upon a shooting star
Pre chorus
Chorus
Bridge
Why not give it all I?ve got, while I?ve got it all to give
As far as I can tell, it?s the only life I?ll live
Chorus
