My Song Book

Trophy

*Verse 1*

One little trophy among the other thirty-three

And I realize how lucky I am

Just a little piece of hardware melted into the souvenir of dreams

And each one has a story

And they fill the once bare shelf in my room

Over the years I have learned that they're connected

By love, sweat, and tears

Flashback to the old days of selling lemonade

When my imagination began to grow

Oh stood a girl four feet tall her shirt size small

But she had that fire in her eyes from the very first daay

She had that heart

And would never give it away

And it all started back then

It all began way back when

*Chorus*

Dream on

You're never too old you're never too young

If you think you don't have the time on your hands

Well the clocks aren't ever slowing down

See the stars aren't going to wait to shine for

So I say

Live in the moment take it all

Never waste a minute and live in the present

Don't grow up up up too fast

Just live everyday like it will be your last

Woah ooh oh oh live it up now

Woah ooh oh oh you're dreambound

*Verse 2*

Seven years later and I'm still staring at that shelf

Remembering how each one came to be

By now they're all a little dusty

But they still hold all the good times and memories

I wish I could relive them one by one

Now I'm moving on

Because life goes on

But I'll never really leave

There will always be a piece of me saying

*Repeat Chorus*

Dream on

You're never too old you're never too young

If you think you don't have the time on your hands

Well the clocks aren't ever slowing down

See the stars aren't going to wait to shine for

So I say

Live in the moment take it all

Never waste a minute and live in the present

Don't grow up up up too fast

Just live everyday like it will be your last

Woah ooh oh oh live it up now

Woah ooh oh oh you're dreambound

Flashback to the old days

Of selling lemonade

I wrote this song when I was looking at all my trophies that I have aquired through sports since I was little and I was thinking of all the good times I had throughout those experiences. Now I am leaving that time and entering a new one. I will still have moments like those, but I am going to miss the people I shared those moments with. This is a song about change and looking back, but moving forward at the same time.

Also, I will be updating this often as I have written countless more songs. Your feedback always encourages me to update my stories so please comment if you liked these songs. Thank you!!!!

Remember that life is

Not meant to be wasted

We can always be chasing the sun!
