When Will My Life Begin lyrics

7 AM, the usual morning lineup

Start on the chores and sweep 'til the floor's all clean

Polish and wax, do laundry and mop and shine up

Sweep again and by then it's like 7:15

And so I'll read a book, or maybe two or three

I'll add a few new paintings to my gallery

I'll play guitar and knit and cook and basically

Just wonder, when will my life begin?

And I'll keep wonderin' and wonderin'

And wonderin' and wonderin'

When will my life begin?

And tomorrow night, lights will appear

Just like they do on my birthday each year

What is it like out there, where they glow?

Now that I'm older, Mother might just let me go
