Mary Beth A Million Different Worlds Lyrics

A Million Different Worlds Lyrics

A young man's gonna tell his folks the truth tonight

They'll put their
hopes for grandkids in a box with all their fears

A college girl's gonna
take her hardest test tonight

A thin blue line will bring the news,
confirming all her tears

And someone just got hired for a million dollar
bonus

And someone's leaving home for somewhere safe

And someone
just got fired and he's got to tell his children

That the little things
they need, they're gonna have to wait



A million different worlds
going on around us

A hundred different choices every moment of the day

A million different worlds going on around us

What's your today



A boy in Massachusetts' going back to boarding school today

He
doesn't want his dad to know he's scared

A white haired woman prays for
the daughter that she raised

Making deals with God to get her spared

And someone just got rescued from the fire that took their home

And
someone just got back her S.A.T.s

Someone's making someone else feel
better in the dark

And someone found a way to make that little baby
breathe



A million different worlds...



Seems
everybody's got a choice at how they're gonna live their lives

They're
lucky or they're victims or they're blessed

And I guess it's easier by
far to miss the wisdom where you are 

And think you'd like to trade with
all the rest

Well they might trade with you... Just as fast

Someone's getting married in the morning 

And someone's finally
putting down those cigarettes for sure

Someone's taking his first day off
in 47 working years

And someone's got a prom date, if he will only ask
her



A million different worlds...
