lyrics

Somewhere in the middle of my life
I took a wrong direction from my path
The way I knew was lost
And the road ahead was closed
I lay alone and waited in the dark

I don’t know how I came to be right there
I can’t say why it happened to be then
Suddenly I saw
What I’d really come here for
All at once I recognised my fear
Everything that mattered once to me
And ever happened, I could see
And now the morning could begin

At the end of my life I don’t want to be sad when it’s spring
At the end of my life I don’t want to regret anything
And I don’t want to wonder what I could have been
If I’d only been stronger and followed a dream
At the end of my life I don’t want to be sad when it’s spring

At the end of my life did I take every chance that I had?
At the end of my life did I miss any moment I had?
At the end of my life have I wasted my time?
Did I throw it away or leave something behind?

If I’m happy or sad well I’m still here today
And I know I’ll be glad that I don’t have to say
“If only I’d said and if only I’d done
And if only I’d seen what I knew all along”

At the end of my life I want someone to know I was here
At the end of my life I want someone I love to be near
When I look at the view I can say I was there
And I gave what I had and had something to share
At the end of my life I want someone to know I was here

At the end of my life I just want to remember today
At the end of my life I can walk in the sun and the rain
At the end of my life there’s still somewhere to go
There’s something to learn and there’s people to know
At the end of my life I just want to remember today

At the end of my life I just hope that I mattered to you
At the end of my life have I done all I dreamed I could do?
At the end of the day I can sing you a song
If you like it I’ll leave it for you when I’ve gone
At the end of my life I just hope that I mattered to you
At the end of my life I just hope that I mattered to you
At the end of my life I just hope that I mattered to you
At the end of my life I just hope that I mattered to you
And I do

At the end of my life I don’t want to be sad when it’s spring
At the end of my life well I’ll know that I gave everything
At the end of my life I can say that I tried
And a name on a stone to say I lived and I died
At the end of my life I don’t want to be sad when it’s spring
When it’s spring
When it’s spring
When it’s spring
When it’s spring
When it’s spring
When it’s spring
When it’s spring
