My life, it don't count for nothing When I look at this world, I feel so small My life, it's only a season A passing September that no one will recall
But I gave joy to my mother And I made my lover smile And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting And I can make it seem better for a while
My life, it's half the way travelled And still I have not found my way out of this night An' my life, it's tangled in wishes And so many things that just never turned out right
But I gave joy to my mother And I made my lover smile And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting And I can make it seem better I can make it seem better I can make it seem better for a while
