Amongst the boxes, the cobwebs, the papers and the dust I sit here alone taking time to adjust The chapters of my life that I can't throw away Good stories and bad trying to keep tears at bay At this point in my life I'm so happy and alive Yet the past it still haunts me and it's hard to derive How far I have come and where I want to be To take life by the horns and be happy and free So much on my mind it whizzes round in my head New love in my life, new career ahead My boy also making decisions in his life Sometimes it feels too much and it cuts like a knife Then all of a sudden I sit and I smile As I realise my world's not a mountain to climb It's a series of little green hills that's all That I climb with my loved ones who catch me when I fall

Comtemplation
Amongst the boxes, the cobwebs, the papers and the dust I sit here alone taking time to adjust The chapters of my life that I can't throw away Good stories and bad trying to keep tears at bay At this point in my life I'm so happy and alive Yet the past it still haunts me and it's hard to derive How far I have come and where I want to be To take life by the horns and be happy and free So much on my mind it whizzes round in my head New love in my life, new career ahead My boy also making decisions in his life Sometimes it feels too much and it cuts like a knife Then all of a sudden I sit and I smile As I realise my world's not a mountain to climb It's a series of little green hills that's all That I climb with my loved ones who catch me when I fall
