Satisfied Mind lyrics

How many times have you heard someone say:

"If I had his money, I would do things my way."

But little they know, that it's so hard to find

One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind.

Once I was living in fortune and fame.

I had all that I needed to get a start in life's game.

Then suddenly it happened, I lost every dime.

But I'm richer by far, with a satisfied mind.

'Coz money can't buy back your youth when you're old.

Or a friend when you're lonely, or a love that's grown cold.

The wealthiest person is a pauper at times

Compared to the man with a satisfied mind.

When my life has ended and my time has run out.

My friends and my loved ones will weep, there's no doubt.

But one thing's for certain, when it comes my time,

I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind.

Yes, I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind.
