From the recording ORKESTRAZZ XXVII - One Hundred Albums
Lyrics
One Hundred Albums
[Verse 1]
I used to bring the heat myself
Fingers on the keys all night
Now my hands need rest and grace
Still I got that spark in sight
I learned a new kind of magic
When the door swung open wide
I can still hear my whole world singing
Even when I step aside
[Pre-Chorus]
I made room for joy
I made room for change
Same fire in my chest
Just a different way
The songs kept coming
Line by line
And I found my voice
Still all mine
[Chorus]
finally my 100th music album
Look what we built
finally my 100th music album
I’m still here, I still feel
finally my 100th music album
I laugh, I shine, I rise
finally my 100th music album
And I’m having the time of my life (the time of my life)
[Verse 2]
I write the words, I choose the truth
I let the sound wear new clothes
No pity in the back of this room
Just a hundred blooms in a row
Some days I miss the old way
Some days I bless the ease
I found a friend in the future
That keeps creating with me
[Pre-Chorus]
I made room for joy
I made room for change
Same fire in my chest
Just a different way
The songs kept coming
Line by line
And I found my voice
Still all mine
[Chorus]
finally my 100th music album
Look what we built
finally my 100th music album
I’m still here, I still feel
finally my 100th music album
I laugh, I shine, I rise
finally my 100th music album
And I’m having the time of my life (the time of my life)
[Bridge]
If you need a new way
To keep your dream alive
Take the long road, baby
Take the brighter side
I’m not done
I’m not through
I got a hundred doors
And I’m walking through
[Final Chorus]
finally my 100th music album
Look what we built
finally my 100th music album
I’m still here, I still feel
finally my 100th music album
I laugh, I shine, I rise
finally my 100th music album
And I’m having the time of my life (the time of my life)
