LIFE SONG (A VISION SPLENDID) lyrics

The song is available from CD Baby or iTunes. Hera the song on Internet radio

SPOKEN
For years, I worked from nine to five,
Lived life and made my choices blind.          
Friends say: life’s got possibility,                
But my life’s on hold; it’s stationary.             
I know about struggle and groundhog days.
I need to move on to a different phase.     
I’ll make the most of my life (I’ve been given)
And not let others cloud my vision.

CHORUS (SUNG)
If your life was a song, what would the music be?   
Would the bass drown out the melody?
Would it be an original score
Or a cover of a song heard before?
Whatever turns out to be,
Live it, own it, boldly.

I’m going to write my life song.
I’m going to own the beat.
The lyrics will be of my choosing,
And the sound unique.

SPOKEN

Life without passion can be a daily drudge.
By passion, I don’t mean lust; that’s not love.
Passion is the joy that gets you through the day.           
It lets you savour each moment and keep stress at bay.
Passion is the spice that gives life all its flavour.    
When times get tough, passion makes you a stayer.  
Passion gives you insights others call epiphany;
You are not bound by limitations but what you dream life can be.

CHORUS (SUNG)
If your life was a song, what would the music be?   
Would the bass drown out the melody?
Would it be an original score
Or a cover of a song heard before?
Whatever turns out to be …
Whatever turns out to be …
Whatever turns out to be,
Live it, own it, boldly.

I’m going to write my life song.
I’m going to own the beat.
The lyrics will be of my choosing,
And the sound unique.
I’m going to write my life song.
(write my life song)
I’m going to own the beat.
(own the beat)
The lyrics will be of my choosing,
And the sound unique.
