The Changes of My Life
The Changes of My Life
As a youngster I wanted to leave home.
To become an adult and be on my own.
The pleasures I'd have would be great.
So anxious to leave, I could hardly wait.
Time soon passed and I turned nineteen.
My new life began my long time dream.
A husband I loved and a home of my own.
The rules of my parents were finally gone.
I sang with the birds, I touched the wind.
Happy, living with my husband, my friend.
Young, I didn't notice the ticking of clocks.
I talked to the animals and petted the fox.
I later had a baby, a sweet handsome boy.
My son has brought me such incredible joy.
I'd hold him and listen to his heart tap, tap.
His favorite place to be, was up on my lap.
Years have gone by, they went too fast.
I never thought that they wouldn't last.
I've gotten older, but I'm still having fun.
Just look at me now, enjoying my grandson.
As a youngster I wanted to leave home.
To become an adult and be on my own.
The pleasures I'd have would be great.
So anxious to leave, I could hardly wait.
Time soon passed and I turned nineteen.

A husband I loved and a home of my own.
The rules of my parents were finally gone.
