Iris Dement - My Life

My Life
Iris Dement

My life, it don't count for nothing.
When I look at this world, I feel so small.


A passing September that no one will recall.
My life, it's only a season:




But I gave joy to my mother.

And I made my lover smile.

And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting.


And I can make it seem better for a while.


My life, it's half the way travelled,


An' my life, it's tangled in wishes,
And still I have not found my way out of this night.

And so many things that just never turned out right.



But I gave joy to my mother.

And I made my lover smile.


And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting.
And I can make it seem better,

I can make it seem better,
I can make it seem better for a while.





Oh, oh oh.
Oh oh.
