Before You Were Born Lyrics

Before you were born, you had it all
All the love and riches in the world
Before you were born, you'd fly along the wind
Then you were born,
And now you want it all back again

Before you were born you had no fears
The sun was your smile and the rain was your tears
And nothing grew without the rain
And your smile would never end
Then you were born,
And now you want it all back again

I'll tell you this, I'm glad you were born
I'll drink another to you as I light my cigarette
Throw another log on desire
And play that mandolin
This chance won't come again
