Lyrics
Unbearable Lightness of Being
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.
There can be no rain without the sun
There can be no love if it's on the run
Can you stand the weight, the unbearable lightness of being?
There can be no day without a night
There can be no left without a right
Can you stand the weight, the unbearable lightness of being?
(instrumental)
Will the politician turn your mind around
Will you give it up or will you stand your ground?
Can you feel the heat, the unbearable lightness of being?
Goin' to California used to be this way
Savin' her rejection for another day
Can you stand the weight, the unbearable lightness of being?
