I Was Here

You won't notice me
I'll be leaving my mark
Like initials carved in an old oak tree
You wait and see

Maybe I'll write like Twain wrote
Maybe I'll paint like Van Gough
Cure the common cold
I don't know
But I'm ready to start 'cause I know in my heart

I wanna do something that matters
Say something different
Something that sets the whole world on its ear
I wanna do something better
With the time I've been given
And I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
Leave nothing less than
Something that says I was here

I will prove you wrong
If you think I'm all talk, you're in for a shock
'Cause this drink's too strong
And before too long

Maybe I'll compose symphonies
Maybe I'll fight for world peace
'Cause I know it's my destiny
To leave more than a trace of myself in this place

I wanna do something that matters
Say something different
Something that sets the whole world on it's ear
I wanna do something better
With the time I've been given
And I wanna try to touch a few hearts in this life
Leave nothing less than
Something that says I was here

And I know that I, I will do more than just pass through this life
I'll leave nothing less than something that says I was here
I was here

(I was here)
I was here
(Oh, something that matters)
(Something that says I was here)
Wanna do something that matters
Something that says I was here
I was here
