My Garden of Life
© 2009 J.C. Ashbaker

I had three sisters, I had no brother
Sometimes a father and Sometimes a mother, yeah
I had a best friend, till she moved away
I learned a lesson I relived today, so I
Smile when I'm happy, cry when I'm sad
Even a good thing can turn out all bad, oh~~
--Refrain--
I once saw through the eyes of my youth lord
And I can hear it calling my name
But I can't live with those lies anymore
All of my reasons have changed
--------------------
Some keeping secrets, some telling lies
I'm holding back all the tears in my eyes, yes and
Who to believe in, who do you trust
Who can you turn to , when you've just had enough, oh~~

--Refrain--
As I look through the eyes of my age now
Things just, don't look quite the same
And I can't live with their lies anymore
Even the seasons must change
------------------
I have a husband, he has a wife
We have some children and a wonderful life, yes and,
Sometimes we're happy and sometimes we're sad
All in all, well it's the best I could have, oh~~

---Refrain--
As I dig in my garden of life, oh
The colors do constantly change
Some of the flowers, they come and they go
Only the few shall remain

As I dig in my garden of life, oh
The colors do constantly change
Some of the flowers, they come and they go
Only the true shall remain
