Story Behind The Song
I was out on the back porch in the summer when my son and his friends were over just about everyday, playing hackey sack on the lawn...and it was just the right time to write a song about life being just fine. It also has some fun spiritual thinking cap ideas in it...

Lyrics
Life's Revelry
Maybe I may never see through different eyes
Maybe mine is not the story told
But there are times I can surely see
Life is just the way it aught to be
Maybe I will see I'm living fairytales
Images projected on a screen
Just like a cartoon character
Searching for her maker
As if Life Itself were waiting for it's big scene
If you know what I mean
Life is just the way it aught to be
The lights are on
It's time for the big scene
Camera action it's Life's revelry
But there are times I can surely see
Life is just the way it aught to be
Maybe I will see I'm writing alibis
Maybe I'm not the one who's wise
But there are times I can surely see
Life is just the way it aught to be
Yes there are times I can surely see
Life is just the way it aught to be
