Jeff Mondak songs
I was supposed to be working (grading papers) late one night. Instead, Alex and I exchanged several emails that touched on some of the random aspects of life. I wrote the lyrics to this one later that night. Alex took it from there. He made one slight, but very effective, change to the words, and then put together what I think is a very powerful song. Note: this song is included on Alex Stangl's CD "Smoking Those Gitanes." Note: This song was #1 on the Overall Hot 100 May 30 - June 2, 2006. Thanks for listening!
One Life Per Custome
Music and performance by Alex Stangl
Words by Jeff Mondak
Do you ever think about me
When I'm thinking about you?
Do you ever stop to wonder
What it would've, should've been?
If I tell the wind I love you
Does it whisper that it's true?
I wonder when I play this game
Will I know if I win?
One life per customer ~ no refunds on this ride
One life per customer ~ some struggle, others glide
Only for a limited time ~ grab a ticket, get in line
One life per customer ~ and yours should be with mine
When I think of all the choices I've made along the way
If any had been different, would you still be here today?
A life is built on chances
I know I've had my share
But every indecision
Is painted in my mind
If this or that had happened
If only fate had cared . . .
But maybe it's good fortune
Lady Luck has been unkind
One life per customer ~ no refunds on this ride
One life per customer ~ some struggle, others glide
Only for a limited time ~ grab a ticket, get in line
One life per customer ~ and yours should be with mine
