about
I did a competition a while back on my facebook page, asking for lyrics for a song about "life". Some great contributions followed. Finally got round to recording the track.
lyrics
It's a battle, it's a dance, in the storm or in romance, Don't look this gifthorse in the mouth, that's not what it's all about/
Rolllercoaster, it's a beach, it's absurd you'll overreach, the stage is set don't fluff your lines, you'll plumb the depths and hit the heights/
This is your life (and on and on and on and on it goes)
It's not life unless it's lived, the fearless fear the love they give, A perilous journey of ups and downs, ins and outs turn you around,
This is your life....../
Life is prologue, life is dialogue,
on your own it's only monologue,
everybody share this space, get on your marks for the human race/
What you give is what you get, the wall between a single breath,
Life is cursed, perfection burst, but there is hope and hope came first...
This is your life..../
