Ken Hensley - I Did It All lyrics

There's a new face up on the stage tonight A new star on the door A new name on the billboard now Where mine had been before There's a new song in their hearts tonight A new light in their eyes A new and haunting melody That's got them hypnotized I know time and tide keep marching on Here today and then you're gone I did it all from the honky tonk to Carnegie Hall From Tokyo to Texas came the call Every mile's a memory that's burned into my soul So, no matter what tomorrow brings No matter what song the new star sings I never will forget, I did it all I got to ride a million dreams The star of, oh, so many scenes I played the game and made my name I thought it couldn't end I gave my life for my success Gave a little too much I guess 'Cause all that's left is emptiness What happened to my friends? I know time and tide keep marching on Here today and then you're gone I did it all from the honky tonk to Carnegie Hall From Tokyo to Texas came the call Every mile's a memory that's burned into my soul So, no matter what tomorrow brings No matter what song the new star sings I never will forget, I did it all I did it all from north to south and all points in between But from Hollywood to heartbreak takes no time But that was way back when and I must face tomorrow now To if you ask me how I am today I can turn to you in truth and say I did it all and now at last I'm doing fine I did it all and now at last I'm doing fine I did it all and now at last I'm doing fine
