I Was Here

I Was Here


You will notice me

I’ll be leavin’ my mark, like initials carved in an old oak tree

you wait and see

maybe I’ll write like Twain wrote

maybe I’ll paint like Van Gough

cure the common cold

I don’t know but I’m ready to start coz I know in my heart


I wanna do something that matters

say something different

something that sets the whole world on its ear

I wanna do somethin’ better, with the time I’ve been given

and I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life

and leave nothin’ less than something that says I was here


I will prove you wrong

If you think I’m all talk, you’re in for a shock

coz this streams too strong, and before too long

maybe I’ll compose symphonies

maybe I’ll fight for world peace

coz I know it’s my destiny to leave more than a trace of myself in this place


I wanna do something that matters

say something different

something that sets the whole world on its ear

I wanna do somethin’ better, with the time I’ve been given

and I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life

and leave nothin’ less than something that says I was here


And I know that I, I will do more than just pass through this life

I’ll leave nothin’ less than somethin’ that says I was here,

I was here, Iwas here, I was here
Wanna do somethin’ that matters

somethin’ that says I was here

wanna do somethin’ that matters

somethin’ that says I was here, I was here
