From the recording The Difference
This Started as an idea I had for a song called "Snowflakes." Then writing continued.
I ended up chucking the title and all references to it and ended up with "The Difference"
You never know where you'll end up when you start!

Lyrics
The Difference © 2011 Scott Youngberg
You might be early or always late
You might always worry or be quite sedate
You might be winning or losing at some game
(But) Everyone is different, which makes us all the same
Some people set out to be masters of their fate
Others never go out, they sit at home and wait
But we all originate from the same template
Every individual has similar DNA
One and one are two
Two and one make three
One can make a difference
When no one else can see
Standing still or still evolving
We all have our different problems
Stand together – We can solve them (with)
The difference
It’s what we have in common.
She likes to drive, He sits at a desk
He wants to travel far, She never leaves the nest
You’re a master of your craft, maybe the best?
Either way you’re different, just like all the rest
One and one are two
Two and one make three
One can make a difference
When no one else can see
Different people. Different Names.
Aren’t you glad we’re not the same?
Come the day - The whole world may
See the difference
Another way
