I've been lately thinking about my life's time All the things I've done and how it's been And I can't help believin' in my own mind I know I'm gonna hate to see it end I've seen a lot of sunshine, slept out in the rain Spent a night or two all on my own And I've known my lady's pleasures Had myself some friends And spent a time or two in my own home I have to say it now it's been a good life all in all It's really fine to have a chance to hang around And lie there by the fire and watch the evenin' tire Along with friends and my old lady Sit and pass a pipe around And talk of poems and prayers and promises And things that we believe in How sweet it is to love someone How right it is to care How long it's been since yesterday What about tomorrow What about our dreams And all the memories we share The days they pass so quickly now The nights are seldom long And time around me whispers when it's cold The changes somehow frighten me, still I have to smile It turns me on to think of growin' old For though the life's been good to me There's still so much to do So many things my mind has never known I'd like to raise a family, I'd like to sail away And dance across the mountains on the moon And I have to say it now it's been a good life all in all It's really fine to have a chance to hang around And lie there by the fire and watch the evenin' tire Along with friends and my old lady Sit and pass a pipe around And talk of poems and prayers and promises And things that we believe in How sweet it is to love someone How right it is to care How long it's been since yesterday What about tomorrow What about our dreams And all the memories we share
