Trouble

I’ve been a beggar and I’ve been a king
I’ve been a loner and I’ve worn the ring
Losing myself just to find me again
I’m a million miles smarter, but I ain’t learnt a thing

I’ve been a teacher and a student of hurt
I’ve kept my word for whatever that’s worth
Never been last, but I’ve never been first
Oh I may not be the best, but I’m far from the worst
Oh I may not be the best, but I’m far from the worst

Oh I’ve seen trouble more than any man should bear
But I’ve seen enough joy, I’ve had more than my share
And I’m still not done, I’m only halfway there
I’m a million miles ahead of where I’m from
But there’s still another million miles to come

Oh I keep on searching for the city of gold
And I’m gonna follow this yellow brick road
Thinking that maybe, it might lead me home
I’m a million miles farther and a long way from home

I know that there’s a plan that goes way beyond mine
Got to step back just to see the design
The mind fears the heart, but the heart doesn’t mind
Oh I may not be perfect, but I’m loving this life
Oh I may not be perfect, but I’m loving this life

Oh I’ve seen trouble more than any man should bear
But I’ve seen enough joy, I’ve had more than my share
And I’m still not done, I’m only halfway there
I’m a million miles ahead of where I’m from
But there’s still another million miles to come
