James Lapine - Holding to the Ground lyrics

TRINA I was sure growing up I would live the life My mother a**umed I'd live Very Jewish, very middle-cla**, and very straight Where healthy men stayed healthy men And marriages were long and great I smile I don't complain I'm trying to keep sane as the rules keep changing Families aren't what they were Thank God there's a husband and a child whom I adore But then there's more So many more There's always more Life is never what you planned Life is moments you can?t understand And that is life I'm plain I don't astound I hold to the ground As the ground keeps shifting Keeping my balance square Trying not to care about this man who Marvin loves But that's my life He shared my life Yes, that's my life Life is never what you planned Life is moments you can't understand And that is life Holding to the ground As the ground keeps shifting Trying to keep sane As the rules keep changing Keeping up my head As my heart falls out of sight Everything will be all right Everything will be all right
