Lyrics
?Everything to Live For?
By
Robert Hood
Working my fingers to the bone,
It seems like for nothing,
The money I bring home,
Isn?t much, but it?s something.
Sometimes I feel like givin up,
Nothing seems to go my way,
Think I?ve had enough,
Just wanna see some better days.
I?m afraid my face would crack,
If I were to smile,
That?s how I act,
After working an endless mile.
Wish I had more than something/
That life wasn?t so hard/
Then I see her there, my everything/
Swingin in the back yard/
The heaviness of the day,
And the pain it eases,
As the hardness in my face,
Shatters into a million pieces,
chorus
Suddenly I realize/
That life?s not so bad/
Because in her eyes/
I?m the worlds greatest dad/
That smile on her face/
Seems to light the way/
This frown is erased/
By her innocent ways/
I
When she jumps in my arms/
And hugs my neck/
The reason I work so hard/
I?ll never forget/
It?s amazing/
What her laughter does/
Saving me/
With her kisses and hugs.
But she?s more than something,
She?s so much more
She?s my everything
To live for
Oh everything to live for..
End.
