I've Seen It All

Lyrics

I've seen it all, I have seen the trees
 I've seen the willow leaves dancing in the breeze
 I've seen a man killed by his best friend
 And lives that were over before they were spent
 I've seen what I was and I know what I'll be
 I've seen it all, there is no more to see!
 You haven't seen elephants, kings or Peru
 I'm happy to say I had better to do
 What about China? Have you seen the Great Wall?
 All walls are great, if the roof doesn't fall
 And the man you will marry? The home you will share?
 To be honest, I really don't care ...
 You've never been to Niagara Falls?
 But I have seen water, it's water, that's all...
 The Eiffel Tower and the Empire State?
 My pulse was as high on my very first date
 Your grandson's hand as he plays with your hair?
 To be honest, I really don't care ...
 I've seen it all, I have seen the dark
 I've seen the brightness in one little spark
 I've seen what I chose and I've seen what I need
 And all that's enough, to want more would be greed
 I've seen what I was and I know what I'll be
 I've seen it all, there is no more to see
 The light and the dark, the big and the small
 Just keep in mind, you need no more at all
 You've seen what you were and know what you'll be
 You've seen it all, there is no more to see
