Lyrics

What if you had missed the bus?
And faith had failed to carry us together here
To a place we are today
Joy and pain stored away; all the years
How many times; looking back and wondering why
Now it’s clear as the look in your eye
Every moment that passes us by
This is Our Life

Monumental world events
All of the magnificence we thought we’d see
Many plans were left to yield to
Faster bands with bigger wheels and sharper teeth
How many words; truth and lies we heard
Now it’s clear as the look in your eye
Every moment that passes us by
This is Our Life

This is it! Mama told me
Make the best of what you’re given
This is our one and only life
Do more than make a living

Now the days so quickly leave
It’s hard to think that they might weave a memory
Looking back at what we’ve done
I hope I don’t forget the ones that meant a lot to me
How many deeds could have satisfied our needs?
Now it’s clear as the solid blue sky
The stars in a fairy tale night
Every moment that passes us by
This is Our Life
