Story Behind The Song

This is more of a statement than a song --- that's why there is no lyric hook

Song Description

more or less something I said to my two daughters

Lyrics

Nothing More Nothing Less


1/ Some people think their life is mapped out for them
They say that what will be will always be
Well I'm not God so I don't know the answer
It just seems a waste of time to wait and see.

2/ When life begins we think that it's for ever
Then soon we realise it's just a dream
For the arrow only ever faces forward
And we are moving faster than it seems.

3/ You start the circle with a new begining
And if you're lucky you can watch it grow
But sometimes fate will try to come between you
And change to ones you knew from those you know

4/ So I wish you all the luck that there is out there
I don't suppose you'll need it who can say
I know you'll both exceed my expectations
And make your mark in life in your own way

Bridge
Do you think perhaps you're very different
Could there be some changes just for you
Maybe I don't know what I'm saying
But then again maybe I do

5/ The best that I can hope for is your happy
You're healthy and your family is the same
For when I die and shadows overtake me
Nothing more than memories remain
