Ever since my life began it's always been a bore

Nothing ever happens much to me 

Always needed something else, that certain something more 

Who can tell me what that thing would be? 

If only I could find a way of changing what I am

Maybe that's what I need to know? 

But would it go and complicate some vast eternal plan

To re-direct the way I want to go? 


Life must be taken the way that you find it

The die has been cast and the scene is set

Don't try to change it, just plod on regardless

Swallowing hard, taking what you get


The books are all written, the stars they all show it

You can only accept it that when you were born

And the sign you were under

Your life will dictate - you can't change it's too late!!


Life must be taken the way that you find it

The die has been cast and the scene is set

Don't try to change it, just plod on regardless

Swallowing hard, taking what you get


Oh, no, please God there's more than this

Life's more than chance, won't you tell me it's true

What they say, that you can change a man

Forgive me, I'll live for you


I need a new start, is it too much I ask?

God who made the earth and sea 

Won't you create a new heart in me?


You lifted me up and you dusted me down

You set my feet back on solid ground

The stars can no longer cause me pain

You've changed my sign, I've been born again
