reaching for the world

i've been a lucky fella

been around everywhere

never known pain or sorrow

never had to care

well

got me a lovely lady

she makes it so nice to belong

well

makes a man's home a castle

and his life a song

oh we fall

all i got i still need a way

to reach for things i swear i don't have today

i need to be what i'm not

all the time all the time all the time

my life has just been a masquerade

i swear a part i wish i wished i had never played

when will i learn that every dream

can't be mine

can't be mine

i'm reaching for the world

swear i am baby

reaching for the world

yes i am i swear i am

reaching for the world

reaching for the world

i wake up every morning

same as life life before well

breakfast on my table

paper at my front door

you see

been a lucky fella

i've been around around everywhere

never known pain or sorrow

never had to care

just what i'm looking for is so hard to find

i swear i just can't seem to find peace of mind

my life is climbing up a hill to survive

girl i swear to

my present's just looking

looking for a good time

and from what i can see oh lord he just can't be friends of mine

one never knows just who can be real or not

reaching for the world yes i am baby

reaching for the world with my heart in my hand

reaching for the world reaching for the world

reaching for the world

my present's just looking

looking for a good time

and from what i can see oh lord he just can't be friends of mine

one never knows just who can be real or not

and i am reaching for the world swear i am baby

reaching for the world with my heart in my hand

reaching for reaching for the world i swear i am baby

reaching for the world

reaching for the world

reaching for the world

reaching for the world
