I’ve never been one of those guys
Who feels that lucky in life
It took a long time to be barely getting by
And have a satisfied mind
When something good happens, I take it in stride
I don’t get excited too many times
You’ll always find I am hard to high five
I’d rather keep all that inside
I’d rather keep all that inside
Maybe it’s the way that I’m built
Won’t take stock of how I feel
All pent-up midwestern Presbyterian guilt
I guess it’s all part of the deal
When something good happens, I take it in stride
I don’t get excited too many times
You’ll always find I am hard to high five
I’d rather keep all that inside
I’d rather keep all that inside
I’ve never been one of those guys
Good at opening his eyes
To see how things have turned out just fine
And say “Thanks” for being alive
And say “Thanks” for being alive
And say “Thanks” for being alive
When something good happens, I take it in stride
I don’t get excited too many times
You’ll always find I am hard to high five
I’d rather keep all that inside
I’d rather keep all that inside

A huge record for me. It helped me find a language to articulate what I wanted to say with my music. Bill is one of the best songwriters out there. You'll never be disappointed. Brent Stewart
