All Of My Life

All of my life, I've been searching

For the words to say how I feel

I'd spend my time thinking too much

And leave too little to say what I mean

But I've tried to understand the best I can all of my life

All of my life, I've been saying sorry

For the things I know I should have done

All the things I could have said come back to me

Sometimes I wish that it had just begun

Seems I'm always that little too late, all of my life

Set 'em up, I'll take a drink with you

Pull up a chair, I think I'll stay

Set 'em up, 'cos I'm going nowhere

There's too much I need to remember

And there's too much I need to say

All of my life, I've been looking

But it's hard to find the way

Just reaching past the goal in front of me

While what's important just slips away

And it doesn't come back but I'll be looking, all of my life

Set 'em up, I'll take a drink with you

Pull up a chair, I think I'll stay

Set 'em up, 'coz I'm going nowhere

There's too much I need to remember

And there's too much I need to say, oh yeah

All of my life there have been regrets

That I didn't do all I could

Making records upstairs while he watched TV

I didn't spend the time I should

And it's a memory I will live with all of my life
