This isn't in any book

Where was this when I signed up?

I think I want my money back

I thought I'd take a look

Then all of a sudden I jumped in

Without ever lookin' back


Life threw me a curve

And I was blind-sided

I didn't know

I didn't know


It's all part of the walk

All part of this thing we call

Life and living

It's all part of the walk

All part of this thing we call

The way of giving

Up our lives to eventually find that

You're in control

It's all part of the walk


Somewhere I forgot 

Life has little twists and turns 

You never see what's comin' up 

I thought I was cool and I'm not 

Now there is no easy way out 

I guess I need to toughen up


I picked myself up

Wiped the dust off 

And I live and learn

I live and learn


I finally got in the game

But got thrown out a second base

Oh well at least I tried

I can't dwell upon these things

What's done is done, it can't be changed

I'll do my best next time


Life threw me a curve

And I was blind-sided

I didn't know

I didn't know
