Lyrics
Another day in the life ain?t nothing for me
It?s just another day and another dollar
Just wondering where I?ll get my next bit of comfort
Another thing to take away the pain
I?ve got no one to call my own
But that?s just fine by me
Just one less heart to keep moving
Just one less mouth to feed
Chorus:
So many faces but not too many colors
I?ve got to make my own way
So many people but no one will help me
So I?ve got to find my way on my own
Everybody wants something for nothing
Don?t put me into that group
I know in life you get what you give
And I?m giving my all to get what I want
Chorus:
So many faces but not too many colors
I?ve got to make my own way
So many people but no one will help me
Well I?ve got to find my way on my own
Seasons change
But I?ll stay right here
While the leaves keep on changing
The clock keeps ticking
Though I try to keep it still
But that?s okay I?ve got nowhere I?m going
Well I?m moving on, I gotta get outta here
Step out from one and into the next
This life may break me up
This life may tear me down
But I?ll get back up again for one more day
Chorus:
So many faces but not too many colors
I?ve got to make my own way
So many people but no one will help me
So I?ve got to find my way
Well I?ve just got to find my way
Oh Lord I?ve got to find my way on my own
