about

Inspired by Something In Common, by Roisin Meaney.

lyrics

Some get a baby, get a baby
On their first time, on their first time
Some have to wait their turn
It might not happen, might not happen
What to do then, what to do then
Take another’s and watch it learn.
And what you had in your head for your life
What ever you were fed in your life,
It’s a new story now.
Waited this long to be happy
Am I happy, am I happy?
Or do I wish to, do I wish to run
There’s always something, always someone
To bring you back to where you came from
To make you know that you’re not alone
And what you had in your head for your life
What ever you were fed in your life,
It’s a new story now.
Unexpected and expected
It’s a life to be respected however you get
to the end
And what you had in your head for your life
What ever you were fed in your life,
It’s a new story now.
And what you had in your head for your life
What ever you were fed in your life, it’s a new
It’s a new story now.
