Kareem Salama - This Life of Mine lyrics

Don't you ever wonder what might be If you lived life free? Don't you ever wonder what it's like To fly off the high dive? Don't you think the dreams in you Are meant to ever come true? Don't you know that hopes are slaves 'till you Free them and see them thru? Can you find a little life in you and make your days and nights worth living? I swear there's more for us to do; there's more for the taking and the giving Want to build a kingdom of Heaven, so it's time to lay the foundation Want to know my neighbors in the world and finally lay down idle speculation This life of mine, this life of mine Ain't the life I had in mind But if I'm bold enough, wise enough, then I can make this life worthwhile I can make this life worth a smile Sarah staring out the window from her corner office But Sarah always thought she'd grow up to build beautiful gardens Jonah waking up for another day of biding his time But Jonah always thought he'd open a school and make kids smile Sarah prays and she takes a chance, opens up her own little business Names her dream "the kingdom of Heaven;" makes herself the prince and the princess Jonah says so long to the subway and buys land just outside the city Builds a school of love and learning for city kids that need something pretty This life of mine, this life of mine Ain't the life I had in mind But if I'm bold enough, wise enough, then I can make this life worthwhile I can make this life worth a smile Jonah says his new school could use a nice little garden So Jonah finds a brand new shop called "kingdom of Heaven" Sarah smiles when she hears the bells on the front door ring So Sarah thinks this is the beginning of her landscape dreams Jonah says "Hello, can you help me? I'm looking for some help with my school" Sarah says "Certainly. We've got just the thing for you" Jonah see something in Sarah; Sarah see something there, too Two years later, Jonah married Sarah, and now more than their dreams came true This life of mine, this life of mine Ain't the life I had in mind But if I'm bold enough, wise enough, then I can make this life worthwhile I can make this life worth a smile
