I used to think that it was me against the world, but it wasn't Thought drinkin' from a glass half empty made it better, but it doesn't Funny all the things you realize When that 20-20 hindsight vision opens up your eyes
Now my outlook on life is different than it used to be Yeah, my outlook is someone's up there Lookin' down and lookin' out for me
Something in my ramblin' soul said I had to go toe to toe with the devil Fell in love with a gypsy girl, said she couldn't risk it on a rebel At least not one that doesn't have a cause And I'll admit, I guess back then that's all I really was
Now my outlook on life is different than it used to be Yeah, my outlook is someone's up there Lookin' down and lookin' out for me
There's so many crossroads you come to And you can't put your finger on Why you went the way you did, and then
You look up and here you are on the flip side of crazy It's something more than lucky stars you thank when you kiss your baby Always believed in God and angels in the sky But never thought that I deserved an angel by my side
Now my outlook on life is different than it used to be Yeah, my outlook is someone's up there Lookin' down and lookin' out for me Now my outlook on life is different than it used to be Yeah, my outlook is someone's up there Lookin' down and lookin' out for me
