Life really is life
But not as we would like to know it
Plant a seed, water well, grow it
Hide your pain, ashamed to show it
Get a second chance, don't blow it...
Life really is life
But only when sold in a 'fire sale'
Buy an umbrella, avoiding the hail
Gravel the drive to your house with shail
Hide your heart that's the size of a whale...
Life really is life
But only when it's worthwhile living
Challenge your soul for being forgiving
The bad in the soil, spend your time seiving
Remember the days you were so full of giving...
