This morning found me wandering through my mind
Another hangover hiding from the sunshine
Put some sunglasses on and stared out the window
Yeah, was looking for a way to tell the world hello
Dealing with the pain of trying to make a dream fly
Taking the good and the bad with a big smile
Uncertain roads and the thrill of the chase
Man, I sure felt life's embrace when I woke up today
I saw a girl at the bus stop crying on her telephone
And a funeral procession heading down cemetery road
A bride and groom outside the Church of Christ
It’s a cut of the cards, it’s a roll of the dice
Dealing with the pain of trying to make a dream fly
Dealing with the pain of trying to make a dream fly
Taking the good and the bad with a big smile
Uncertain roads and the thrill of the chase
Man, I sure felt life's embrace when I woke up today
Every day brings another chance for you to take
And every day brings another choice for you to make
When you wake up the pain of trying to make a dream fly
Taking the good and the bad with a big smile
Uncertain roads and the thrill of the chase
But I'd have to say I'm in a pretty good place
Dealing with the pain of trying to make a dream fly
Taking the good and the bad with a big smile
Uncertain roads and the thrill of the chase
Man, I sure felt life's embrace when I woke up today
