Alternate Life

In an alternate life
I'm living in a quaint apartment
in New York city
The old ballet studio type
with arched windowsÂ
the view is rather prettyÂ
In an alternate lifeÂ
I'm a photographerÂ
for a wildlife and nature magazine
paid for my trepid venturesÂ
I have 2 or 3 good friendsÂ
to share life withÂ
a wonderful girlfriend
or a date every other nightÂ
In an alternate life
I travel to exotic places
I meet with thoseÂ
of many creeds and races
I get to see the winter snow
fall gently over the city
and dazzle in theÂ
Christmas lightsÂ
In an alternate lifeÂ
I'm swapping gifts
And holding someone tightÂ
Under the Rockefeller centre tree
I'll spend most wintersÂ
in the westÂ
Or go wherever life
is calling me
In an alternate lifeÂ
my parents are alive and well
I call them
every other day
I have more smiles
more laughterÂ
More momentsÂ
that take my breath awayÂ
In an alternate lifeÂ
I have a little familyÂ
my heart is filledÂ
my spirits are highÂ
trust me I tried so hardÂ
to get here
but its just an alternate life.
