Living Deliberately


I was sharing lunch with my friend David Harris in LA a few years ago. We were talking the usual-- different routes and career strategies to succeed in the music business. After we had devised the ideal business plan, David smiled and said to me, "Man plans, and God laughs."

Too late for an easy answer.
Too long looking for the truth.
We go pondering the questions.
Searching for an absolute.

Chorus:
We make it so hard--
Our personal tyranny.
And we spend our time
Living deliberately.

Each day starts with some reflection.
Which way are we gonna choose.
How much are we going to suffer
In this life that we pursue?

Chorus:
We make it so hard--
Our personal tyranny.
And we spend our time
Living deliberately.

Bridge:
Reality is our creation.
The world around comes from within.
So live a life that makes you happy
Make it true, do not pretend.

So we put it all in motion.
This is where is all begins.
Sightless in a world of wonder.
When we know just how it ends.
