Our Life Story

Our Life Story Written By Gary D. Ward, Gary D. Ward, All rights reserved When I woke up this morning, I had a dream still on my mind I saw you standing at the end of rainbow, No more tears in your eyes I could hear the sweet music and laughter, Through a window looking back into time When we sat under the shade of those old oak trees Looking up to the sky Happiness was easy we still had that gleam in our eyes We always knew we would make it, didn’t seem like we had to try We had it good for a while, but every step started taking a toll It seemed the harder we worked, the higher the tax on our souls There was joy in life’s simplicity, Back before there were all these demands We never dreamed that things could have changed The way that they have, we had a method to our madness And the trail that we blazed was hard I would not have guessed our life story Would bring us this far Before I met you I’d been a traveler, I never stayed anywhere too long Drifting one stop to another, I was always alone There were a thousand places you could have been But fate put you right in my way And now all these years later I still call it my lucky day There was joy in life’s simplicity, Back before there were all these demands We never dreamed that things could have changed The way that they have, we had a method to our madness And the trail that we blazed was hard I would not have guessed our life story Would bring us this far
