Life Is For Living
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You and me, our life is drifting along
Watching the world as it's singing its song
High above, someone is calling to me
Life is for living and living is free
You to me, are like the Sun in the sky
See how you fly, you have wings of your own
You and me, our love will last without end
Ride with the wind, won't you follow me home
Turn around and see the circles we spin
And we're taking our chances on where we begin
Up above, the rain is falling on me
Life is for living and living is free
You to me, are like the Sun in the sky
See how you fly, you have wings of your own
You and me, our love will last without end
Ride with the wind, won't you follow me home
Taking up time trying to write a line till the break of day
Given a sign can you make it rhyme tell me what to say
Making it fine can you ease my mind help me drift away
Turn around and see the circles we spin
Takin' our chances on where we begin
Up above, the rain is falling on me
Life is for living and living is free
You to me, are like the Sun in the sky
See how you fly, you have wings of your own
You and me, our love will last without end
Ride with the wind, won't you follow me home
