Frank Sinatra - That's Life



That's life, that's what all the people say
You're riding high in April, Shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June

I said that's life, and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks, Stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine old' world, it keeps spinning around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself, flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life, I tell you, I can't deny it
I thought of quitting, But my heart just won't buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird, and then I'd fly

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself laying flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life, That's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, My

Indio - Life Lies Down



I have a dream where I die
I have a dream where I listen
The birds of the morning have sun strange skin

There is a fish on the shore
The same that came down from the river
This is the world of the rose and thorn

Life lies down
And the world still spins round
I lay on for this time I have found
Home

Out in the bullrush and steel
The tide has gone and forgiven
For each breath and quiver of sand and stone

Still comes the hum of that bird
A beat of a drum in a meadow
That stays to deliver this sight from limb

Life lies down
And the world still spins round
I lay on for this time I have found

I have the blood to ride out this storm
If I can just keep the wind under these wings

Like I did once before
Hands on an ocean
I was the sailor
For one more time

Life lies down
And the world still spins round
I lay on
For this time I have found

Life lies down
And the world still spins round
I lay on
For this time I have found
Home

Eddie Vedder - No Ceiling



Comes the morning
When I can feel
That there's nothing left to be concealed
Moving on a scene surreal
No, my heart will never
Will never be far from here

Sure as I am breathing
Sure as I'm sad
I'll keep this wisdom in my flesh
I leave here believing more than I had
And there's a reason I'll be
A reason I'll be back

As I walk
The Hemisphere
Got my wish
To up and disappear

I been wounded
I been healed
Now for landing I been
Landing I been cleared

Sure as I'm breathing
Sure as I'm sad
I'll keep this wisdom
In my flesh

I leave here believing
More than I had
This Love has got
No Ceiling

Kenny Rogers - You Decorated My Life



All my life was a paper
Once plain pure and white
Till you moved with your pen
Changin' moods now and then
Till the balance was right

Then you added some music
Every note was in place
And anybody could see all the changes in me
By the look on my face

And you decorated my life
Created a world where dreams are a part
And you decorated my life
By paintin' your love all over my heart
You decorated my life

Like a rhyme with no reason
In an unfinished song
There was no harmony
Life meant nothin' to me
Until you came along

And you brought out the colors
What a gentle surprise
Now I'm able to see all the things life can be
Shinin' soft in your eyes

And you decorated my life
Created a world where dreams are a part
And you decorated my life
By paintin' your love all over my heart
You decorated my life

Elton John - I believe in love



I believe in love, it's all we got
Love has no boundaries, costs nothing to touch
War makes money, cancer sleeps
Curled up in my father and that means something to me
Churches and dictators, politics and papers
Everything crumbles sooner or later
But love, I believe in love

I believe in love, it's all we got
Love has no boundaries, no borders to cross
Love is simple, hate breeds
Those who think difference is the child of disease
Father and son make love and guns
Families together kill someone
Without love, I believe in love

Without love I wouldn't believe
In anything that lives and breathes
Without love I'd have no anger
I wouldn't believe in the right to stand here
Without love I wouldn't believe
I couldn't believe in you
And I wouldn't believe in me
Without love

I believe in love
I believe in love
I believe in love
