All part of the walk

This isn't in any book
Where was this when I signed up?
I think I want my money back
I thought I'd take a look
Then all of a sudden I jumped in
Without ever lookin' back

Life threw me a curve
And I was blind-sided
I didn't know
I didn't know

It's all part of the walk
All part of this thing we call
Life and living
It's all part of the walk
All part of this thing we call
The way of giving
Up our lives to eventually find that
You're in control

It's all part of the walk

Somewhere I forgot
Life has little twists and turns
You never see what's comin' up
I thought I was cool but I'm not
Now there is no easy way out
I guess I need to toughen up

I pick myself up
Wiped the dust off
And I live and learn
I live and learn

I finally got in the game
But got thrown out at second base
Oh well at least I tried
I can't dwell upon these things
What's done is done, it can't be changed
I'll do my best next time

Life threw me a curve
And I was blind-sided
I didn't know
I didn't know
