When Will My Life Begin Mandy Moore

[00:17.72] Seven A.M., the usual morning lineup

[00:22.27] Start on the chores and sweep 'til the floor's all clean

[00:26.78] Polish and wax, do laundry, and mop and shine up

[00:30.49] Sweep again, and by then it's like 7:15

[00:34.76] And so I read a book

[00:36.85] Or maybe two or three

[00:39.28] I'll add a few new paintings to my gallery

[00:43.76] I'll play guitar and knit

[00:45.90] And cook and basically

[00:48.27] Just wonder when will my life begin?

[01:02.34] Then after lunch, it's puzzles and darts and baking

[01:06.59] Paper mache, a bit of ballet, and chess

[01:15.11] Then I'll stretch, maybe sketch, take a climb

[01:18.30] Sew a dress!

[01:23.62] I'll paint the walls some more

[01:25.74] I'm sure there's room somewhere

[01:28.12] And then I'll brush and brush

[01:30.25] And brush and brush my hair

[01:32.37] Stuck in the same place I've always been

[01:37.13] And I'll keep wondering and wondering

[01:39.78] And wondering and wondering

[01:42.19] When will my life begin?

[01:48.04] Tomorrow night

[01:51.50] The lights will appear

[01:56.56] Just like they do on my birthday each year

[02:05.83] What is it like

[02:10.06] Out there where they glow?

[02:15.12] Now that I'm older

[02:19.38] Mother might just

[02:21.75] Let me go
