He stares into the mirror at the shell of a man he once was
At the hard evidence of what living for the dollar one day does
He thinks about the things he's gonna change
As soon as he gets it back up to his feet
Then the nurse comes in with something for the pain
And says, "Is there anything more you need?"
He says, yeah
More life, more time
More faith and the presence of mind
To breathe deeper, love stronger
Stay in the moment, one moment longer
Less anger, less worry, more life.
He says, I've been a mover and a shaker buddy
Second to none
With a will of steel, I could close a deal
You bet your life I got it done.
Lately I think about the ones I might have hurt
How easily I've reasoned it away
What did I think it all was worth?
Cause there's nothing that I own I would not trade
For more life, more time
More faith and the presence of mind
To breathe deeper, love stronger
Stay in the moment, one moment longer
Less anger, less worry
There's a woman who has loved me faithfully
And children I can't believe are grown
God knows why only now I see
They are the one true happiness I've known.
Breathe deeper, love stronger
Stay in the moment, one moment longer
More love, more light, more life
