If I Could Put My Life On Paper Lyrics And Chords By Joe Dolan
if I could put my life on paper
Words wouldn't need to rhyme
I'd change the tears I cry to laughter
If only I had the time
I tell a sad faced gray haired lady
Words that it's too late to say
if I could put my life on paper
If only I knew the way
If I could live my life all over
Julie would still be mine
I was a fool, too proud to love her
How could I be so blind
To live a life just for the taking
I should have known before
I won the battles for the making
Only to loose the war
Life goes on, life goes on
For me there's no return
what's done is done, those days are gone
When life is young, your never wrong
It takes so long to learn.
To live a life just for the taking
I should have known before
I won the battles for the making
Only to loose the war
Words wouldn't need to rhyme
I'd change the tears I cry to laughter
If only I had the time
I tell a sad faced gray haired lady
Words that it's too late to say
if I could put my life on paper
If only I knew the way
If I could live my life all over
Julie would still be mine
I was a fool, too proud to love her
How could I be so blind
To live a life just for the taking
I should have known before
I won the battles for the making
Only to loose the war
Life goes on, life goes on
For me there's no return
what's done is done, those days are gone
When life is young, your never wrong
It takes so long to learn.
To live a life just for the taking
I should have known before
I won the battles for the making
Only to loose the war
