What Would I Do Without My Music
Lyrics: Bruce Belland ASCAP
Music: Harry Middlebrooks BMI
Sometimes I stumble home at night discouraged
Dragging my battered dreams behind
Wonderin’ if the battle’s worth the fighting
And why so many people’s eyes are blind
But as I disappear into my music
And a song grows deep inside my soul
I know if I was born to use it
(optional lyric: I know if God wants me to use it)
The striving’s more important than the goal
And I think:
What would I do without my music?
What would I do without my song?
What would I do without my music?
To make it right when everything seems wrong
And as I lose my worries in my music
Dreams start re-building strong and high
And I know though I may not be winning
I’m a long, long way from losing if I try
And I think:
What would I do without my music?
What would I do without my song?
What would I do without my music?
To lift me up when all my dreams are gone
To give me hope so I can carry on
