Versuri Never Lived At All
Becky's playing a piece by Gershwin on her old
piano
She's been playing since her childhood, Too long
to recall...
but the chords that fall from her fingertips, are
the same
she played when she could barely sit still, back
in `69,
when the keys made her hands look small
And she built her dream around symphonies and
concertos
around traveling the country, and playing the
music halls
four kids later the dreams been reduced to
what-if scenarios
but hey, to never dream is to have never lived at
all
Never lived at all
Dave's a corporate lawyer in the city of Chicago
and for fifteen years, he's had his nose to the
old grindstone
poured his money in the bank to feed the beast
called portfolio
Well, if time is money then success is a life
alone
You can look out at the skyline for some
forgiveness
When you invest in love, the same will be
returned
He has prided himself on a lifetime of spoken
directness
It took him forty years to hear the lesson
learned
Has he never lived at all?
Never lived at all...
Never lived at all
The great American novel sits on top of Peter's
kitchen table
300 pages on a town he built inside of his head
He signs the cover page, uncorks the bottle with
the dusty label
pours his wife a glass, she says Baby, bring the
bottle to bed
At 6 AM he's out fighting the cars on the freeway
and fighting his manuscript, has he written his
own downfall?
But he'll embrace rejection, he'll kiss the seal
of each envelope
Better to live in hope than to never have lived
at all
To never live at all
Never live at all
