And That's Why I Sing (version 3)


And That’s Why I Sing


Everybody wants to know
Why I sing where ever I go
Because when It’s time for me to speak
I can’t say a single word
I begin to shake like an earthquake
I begin to feel the heat
Like I’m a piece of deep fried meat
And that’s when the sky turns gray
Because nothing I say
Ever comes out the right way

But when I sing
Everything
Flows so beautifully
I feel like I
Can do anything
Because when I sing
It’s like a magic trick
All my worries
All my fears disappear
And rising up
From the smoke
Is a brand new me
With a brand new smile
Feeling confident
Feeling magnificent
Ready to show this world
What I can do


But every time I walk into a crowed room
My mind is racing
Pacing back and forth
Trying to find something
I know I can say
When out of the blue
I start stuttering like a fool
Feeling like I lost another fight
Feeling like I can never do anything right

But when I sing
Everything
Flows so beautifully
And I feel like I
Can do anything
Because when I sing
It’s like a magic trick
All my worries
All my fears disappear
And rising up
From the smoke
Is a brand new me
With a brand new smile
Feeling confident
Feeling magnificent
And I’m ready to
Show this world
What I can do

And there I was sittin in the back row
I was gettin ready to go
When I heard a voice say to me
You were born to be a leader
You were born to be a preacher
But how can I lead
How can I preach
When I can’t even speak
People stare at me
Like I’m a freak
Like I’m to dumb
To know what’s going on
And then that voice said to me
All you’ve got to do is sing

Because when I sing
Everything
Flows so beautifully
I feel like I
Can do anything
Because when I sing
It’s like a magic trick
All my worries
All my fears disappear
And rising up
From the smoke
Is a brand new me
With a brand new smile
Feeling confident
Feeling magnificent
And I’m ready
To show this world
What I can do
And that’s why I sing
