Trick Of The Mind

When I was just a little boy and I learned to ride a bike
Used to fall down alot and it hurt my pride
Daddy took my by the hand and said son you need to understand
You're gonna learn to fall before you learn to ride

Time and time again it seemed when life took away the teenage dreams
And Iwas angered when the best laid plans fell through
Daddy used to smile and say you know you'll live to fight another day
And when you get your way, you'll see what I'm telling you

He'd say I know you get discouraged and life is sometimes real unkind
And if I could I'd take the pain and make it mine
And don't let nobody tell you boy that life is something easy
That just a trick of the mind

He'd say nothing you believe in
Is gonna fall into your hands
And if it's easy then it's bound to slip away
If there's one piece of wisdom son I want to make you understand
You can have it all but you can't have it all today

Now that I've become a man and life's to hard to understand
I'm reminded of the things I've put away
And I go outback and there in the yard a rusty old bike I rode so far
And I remember what my daddy used to say

He'd say I know you get discouraged and life is sometimes real unkind
And if I could I'd take the pain and make it mine
But don't let nobody tell you boy that life is something easy
That just a trick of the mind

And don't let nobody tell you boy that life is something easy
That just a trick of the mind
