Lyrics
As far as we know there's just one life to live
As far as we know there's just one love to give
As far as we know we're given just one life so live it, live it, live it, live it up!
Bad headache, what should you wear
Tick tock tickin' trying to get yourself there
On the go solving this and that no time for Oprah or the Bachelorette
Workin' overtime pickin' up all the slack
And there's too many people riding on your back
Careful now life will pass you by, Girl you're lucky just to be alive
Chorus
Well you're lucky for the sunrise
The full moon brings a high tide
And when it comes you'll be by my side
On the beach sippin' Mai Tai's
Well you're lucky for those summer days
Sun kissed bikini lines all day
Let's play some hooky on your nine to five
Girl you're lucky just to be alive
Well what about me... I'll write myself in
Can't have a song with no romantic man
Someone to have and someone to hold
Good love stories well they never grow old!
And NOW I know you still got aches and pains AND THERE GONNA TAKE a while to go away
And when it hurts I know it's hard to se
But I'm so happy you're still here with me
Life's too short to waste one minute
I couldn't live another day without you in it.
Chorus
