Sometimes

sometimes, life throws at me ev'rything it's got
sometimes, I'm not worried I've dealt with a lot
sometimes, life's just that bit too short
and ties my weary mind in a knot

when, I feel like resting my weary bones
and...
my bothered soul's sounding its retreat
when life's become too difficult for me

just for a moment or two before I blow
my lonely horn in support of its victory

sometimes, life throws at me everything it's got
sometimes, I'm not worried I've dealt with a lot

sometimes, ... 

                       life's not too short
