Well, you can't have it all...

Lyrics

Bright lights, big dreams
Nothing's quite what it seems
Reach high, fall hard
Always chasing shooting stars

But maybe we're wrong
Thinking life's a race to be won

You can't have it all
The world keeps spinning, we're so small
Can't have it all
But what you've got might be enough to stand tall

Fast cars, gold rings
Chasing all the shiny things
Time flies, hands full
Still feeling somehow not whole

But maybe we're wrong
Thinking life's a race to be won

You can't have it all
The world keeps spinning, we're so small
Can't have it all
But what you've got might be enough to stand tall

The sunrise, the sunrise
Slow down, look around
The real treasure's what you've found
Right here, right now
That's all we're allowed

You can't have it all
The world keeps spinning, we're so small
Can't have it all
But what you've got is enough
Is more than enough after all

Can't have it all
But you've got this moment
Can't have it all
But you've got right now

Love the message, and am enjoying the delivery as I write this. My favorite line: The world keeps spinning/we’re so small. So universally relatable. Nice work!

Totally agree. Life isn't a race to be won, even if your selfish genes would have it otherwise.

This production actually *does* have it all; it's outstanding. That gating effect REALLY grabs the attention right off the blocks but it did not prepare me for the intense prog journey that I was about to be taken on. Wow!
