Lyrics
Now It's Up To You
"I don't care what you say
I'm seventeen now going to do it my way.
I got a job and some friends in town
you can't stop me I won't back down"
the father let go of his arm
took a deep breath to stay calm
CHORUS: "It's your l life do what you want to
it's your dream to follow wherfe it leads
it's your heart, young and still unbroken
and even if your angry words are true
it's not up to me , now it's up to you "
She went walking through city park
with an angry hurting troubled heart
she realized it had been some time
since she had any peace of mind
but there were no more tears to cry
when she told him good-bye
she said: CHORUS: "It's you life, do what you want to
it's your dream to follow where it leads
it's your heart , strong and still unbroken
so even if your angry words are true
it's not up to me, now it's up to you "
BRIDGE: He's been sober a year today, got a candle and a card from AA
saying: " It's your life do what you want to
it's your dream to follow where it leads
it's your heart, you know it can be broken
day to day prayer will see you through
now that's up to me, now that's up to you
