Lyrics
VERSE When I was still a happy child
I loved those wild shows
and I knew that going west
was where I had to go.
They spurred a dream, my life inside
a gleeming glass so full.
I felt it when I closed my eyes
and galloped in its pull.
CHORUS Hey life, you're mine,
sure as sight I'll breathe with you.
Hey life, you're mine,
my compass point is true.
They say the west was won
as calvary bullets flew
but I say it?s won by dreamers,
believers ridin? through...
VERSE An angry girl of eighteen
I stuffed a horse's pack
with many things, and tied up dreams
were slung upon my back.
Without knowing, thought I knew
about which way was best.
It took me falling off to see
just how to win the west.
AMENDED CHORUS
Hey life, you're mine,
sure as sight I'll breathe with you.
Hey life, you're mine,
my compass point is true.
They say the west was won
by steamers charging too
but I say it?s won by dreamers,
believers ridin? through...
BRIDGE Believing is the stallion rode,
the setting sun where I must go.
Eyes kept on that blazing ball
tell me that I cannot fall.
I've always known I held a sack
of daring dreams upon my back
Silly girl, to leave them there
I loose the knot,
they take me where...
AMMENDED CHORUS
There's life! All mine!
Sure as sight I'm breathin too.
Hey life, you're mine,
my compass point is true.
They say the west was won
by cowboys, yes, they knew
all about those dreamers,
believers ridin? through...
TAG I'm believin' now
and ridin' through...
HEY LIFE!
