Timothy B. Schmit - Secular Praise lyrics

Schmit When I was a little boy I had a lot of friends Running up and down the streets 'Til the day's end There was nothing that we could not do Superman strong Keepers of the neighborhood Then we all went home Time rolls by But it all seems like the wink of an eye Now I look straight ahead and smile We had a lot to dream about Music filled our minds Sailing all around our heads In perfect time (And I say) Hallelujah Gonna shout it out Gonna say it again Hallelujah Gonna breathe it in I like the smell of an open field Don't mind a city street I walk along singing to myself To make ends meet Don't go to church, but I feel the weight Some people think I'm shy Still I hope to shake the hand of fate Before I die I don't know Why some have less and some have more All my sorrow could all fit in a bedroom drawer So many lessons from way back then But still I wish I knew How I became the lucky one To be with you (And I say) Hallelujah Gonna shout it out Gonna say it again Hallelujah Hallelujah Gonna shout it out Gonna say it again Hallelujah Gonna breathe it in
