Lifetime Achievement

I have lived a lifetime, it's hard to be believed
I'm (?) and time's almost up so what have I achieved?
I have done and won some things - awards I have a few
But the biggest prize, the great surprise is I managed to win you

Trophies on my mantlepiece, citations on my wall
Accolades and autographs, yes I guess I got them all
But all these honors don't add up to all that much it's true
That the biggest prize, the great surprise is I managed to win you

Gold rеcords and blue ribbons, bronze statuettеs and plaques
We all want to be winners. Admit it, face the facts
But I couldn't win what I craved the most, that's the thing we all dream of
It's the loving cup we long for with our names engraved in love

As for my life achievement it just a hill of beans
In the end what's justified is not what it all means
I have done and won some things - but I lost myself - who knew?
But the biggest prize, the great surprise is I managed to find you
Who needs cash and prizes? What I achieved is you
