I Had to Write a Song
When things began on that first day
Who’d have thought it’d turn out this way
As I daily pay the price I pay
'Cause I had to write a song
I can only think of what might be
Had I not heard that melody
Somewhere deep inside of me
When I had to write a song
There are a lot of tears I’d never have cried
A lot of times when down inside
I’d not have known the death I died
But I had to write a song
I might have been more understood
By all those in my neighborhood
If life had just been fine and good
Instead, I had to write a song
Now morning’s light will always bring
A call to keep alive the dream
To find a way to let it sing
Since I had to write a song
After all is said and done
I’d like to think that everyone
Remembered me for what was sung
And know, I had to write a song
