This is my life

This is my life
this is my time
just show me the light
and i go there.
give me the wine
bitter and sweet
and a little bit of bread
that's all i need.
no, i don't want the gold from xanadu
i think i leave it all to you
this is my life and i don't care.
this is my street,
are you restless feet
carry me on to anywhere.
take the fear
take it away
and give me some hope
for one more day.
i saw a ghost behind the door
when the kids were coming home from the war
with broken dreams and nothing more.
i heard a woman singing her song
and it was good and warm and strong
she made me cry i don't know why.
i don't want to bring you down
i declare it's good to be here
this is my life and i don't care!
