Låttexter: Ginny Owens. Prelude.
One day I decided
I'd aspire to higher ambition
So I set out on a mission
To change the world
Armed and dangerous with my well-meant words
And best intentions
I went sharing my convictions
With every livin' soul
But it wasn't long 'til the lightning flashed
The storms of disenchantment crashed
And my ambitions were scattered by winds of doubt
And it wasn't long 'til I learned to see
Life wouldn't always be easy for me
So I wrote a little song to remind myself
I'd aspire to higher ambition
So I set out on a mission
To change the world
Armed and dangerous with my well-meant words
And best intentions
I went sharing my convictions
With every livin' soul
But it wasn't long 'til the lightning flashed
The storms of disenchantment crashed
And my ambitions were scattered by winds of doubt
And it wasn't long 'til I learned to see
Life wouldn't always be easy for me
So I wrote a little song to remind myself
