That Makes All the Difference to Me

Jana Stanfield

Chorus:
I may not ever be a millionaire
There are places I may never see
But deep down I believe
That what I do makes a difference
And that makes all the difference to me

It’s so easy to compare ourselves to people from our past
People who’ve gone on to reach success and fame at last
It’s easy to believe that we lose by what they’ve gained
So this is what I tell myself to chase those blues away

Repeat chorus

All it takes is a reunion of family or friends
To make us wonder how we measure up and question how we live
We all choose priorities somewhere along the way
And what we value leads us to where we are today

Repeat chorus

There are treasures that money can’t buy
And the greatest of these is to achieve a rich life

Repeat chorus

Why do we compare ourselves to people from our past
People who’ve gone on to reach success and fame at last
It’s so easy to convince ourselves that we lose by what they’ve gained
So this is what I tell myself to chase those thoughts away

We all choose our priorities somewhere along the way
And let our values lead us
We let our values lead us

We all make separate choices somewhere along the way

We all set our priorities
We all must choose (set) priorities
