(Verse 1) (4 bar intro) I’ve lived my life in living color And never missed a thing But now I hear my favorite song And forget the words to sing (Verse 2) Verse I forget what I was thinking I just can’t find the words they were right there at my fingertips Then disappeared and never heard (Chorus) (Tempo builds with soulful vocal) I’ve lost lots of jobs And I’ve lost at love And lost sight that I’m half blind But one thing that scares me more Right down to my very core Is the day I start to lose my mind (Short funky pucking guitar interlude) (Verse 3) I have a good wife and a good life And ambition doesn’t drive me anymore I’ve got my children and my grandkids And, man, I couldn’t love them more (Verse 4) But when I forgot my darling’s first name It scared me down to my bones But when she smiled her special smile She said you’ll never be alone (Chorus) (Tempo builds with soulful vocal) I’ve lost lots of jobs And I’ve lost at love I’ve lost sight that I’m half blind But one thing that scares me more Right down to my very core Is the day I start to lose my mind (Verse 5) I’ve lived my life in living color And never missed a thing But now I just take it day by day And see what the future brings
