Don't worry about your life
If you hold it too close you lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go before it's gone?

On the corner of 5th and Broadway
I was walking to the grocery store on 3rd
I saw a man upon a box
And he seemed a little unorthodox
Though he was preaching up a storm
And as I walked on by
He said...

Don't worry about your life
If you hold it too close you lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go before it's gone?

A little further on I saw
A begger on the street
He asked for change
And then gives me his life story
He said he was a millionaire
But he made some bad decisions there
And now a dollar fifty could feed him for a week
And he said....

Don't worry about your life
If you hold it too close you lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go before it's gone?

Don't worry about your life
If you hold it too close you lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go before it's gone?

And I see the birds
Watch them fly high
They've got everything they need
Show me why.
I can be free knowing You will care for me!

Finally at the grocery store
My mind is filled with many thoughts
As I bump into a girl I knew from High School
She said "What's different about you girl?"
And I said "This is what I know is true.
And I'll pass it right along to you."

Don't worry about your life
If you hold it too close you lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go before it's gone?

Don't worry about your life
If you hold it too close you lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go before it's gone?

Don't worry about your life
If you hold it too close you lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go before it's gone?

Don't worry about your life
If you hold it too close you lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go before it's gone?
