Life Is for Living

Chasing the light
Of the sun till
The end of the day
As I’m following
the one
that I should have become
But I didn’t even know
I was missing the sense of the time
That was passing me by
And for all the nice crossroads
I passed
Without slowing me down
There’s one
I regret
Not having heard the faint sound
Of this marvelous voice
Which was screaming out loud
The real sense of my run in the verses:
Life is for living
The rest stays on the floor.
And for all the mistakes
That I’ve made
There is something I’ve learnt
Not to follow
the one
Who is shining alone
Of a red flashing light
That is burning him down
At the edge of the street in the night
But now that a lifetime
Has passed
I don’t dare to look back
All the things
I’ve missed
‘Cause I put them aside
And I know it’s too late
To be hearing the voice from inside
Which is singing for the last time:
Life is for living
The rest stays on the floor.
Life
Living
That I will whisper in your ear tonight
Life
Living
That I will whisper in your ear tonight
Life
Living
That I will whisper in your ear tonight
