Merrily

(album: Journey - 2022)

I save each voice note just to hear their voice
I wish that I could be home every bedtime, I hope I'm making the right choice
There's just no place like home
I get in and kiss all the kids on their heads, and wonder what they're dreaming
I tiptoe and quietly lay in the bed, I drift off to sleeping

I wonder if they know
Just how I love them so

Please don't call and interrupt me, I'm living the dream
It's kinda like ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Don't mistake me, life gets crazy on the winning team
It's kinda like ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, life is but a dream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
(Dream)

So proud of Adele 'cause he's getting so strong
Watching Tamika grow fast in her faith, man, I know I am where I belong (I know I'm where I belong)
And I hope that Gary can get all he wants
I wish the band could go everywhere with me
It's more than music, it's love

And I wonder if they see (I wonder)
That He's using more than me (I wonder)

Please don't call and interrupt me, I'm living the dream
It's kinda like ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, yeah
Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Don't mistake me, life gets crazy on the winning team
It's kinda like ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Life is but a dream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily

(Oh) The fear tried to shape me
(Oh) But I wouldn't let it break me
(Oh) I'm not living on the sidelines
(Oh) So every right now is my time

I could sit all day and talk to my mom, my mom
And I keep pretending, but I feel much better when I hear my dad say, "Good job"
And I can't imagine that one day I'll stand
In front of the King of the Earth
And He'll know and judge me for who I really am

I'm living to live again

No, life's not perfect, but don't disturb it, I'm living my dream (Hey)
Please don't call and interrupt me (Me), I'm living the dream
It's kinda like ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Gently down the stream (Oh)
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Don't mistake me, life gets crazy on the winning team
Yeah, it's kinda like ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Life is but a dream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily (Hey)

Ooh, I'm living my dream (Merrily, merrily)
Ooh, I'm living my dream (Merrily, merrily, hey)
Ooh, I'm living my dream (Merrily, merrily)
Ooh, I'm living my dream (Merrily, merrily, hey)
No matter what may come, don't matter who may go
I've learned to be happy, God is in control
Don't matter what may come, don't matter who may go
I've learned to be happy, God is in control
