Why is it Me

I've traveled all over the world To places that most men just dream of I've made me some friends on the way I guess I've even known love I've spent Christmas time on a beach In a place that's not far from the moon And I've watched the snow falling down On the trees in the middle of June I'm a lot more lucky than most I've had more breaks than a few But why is it me instead of you I've followed the sun to the west Till I found where it sets in the east I've eaten my meals on the floor In a place where rice is a feast I can sit with my love on a hill And watch my child play below I've learned how to live with myself And let my true feelings show
