Stars fell down in a silent street, waking up the neighbours who were fast asleep
The worst came true
All at once you had to move, even though you didn't know where you were going to
Win or lose

You're not a child
Not anymore
Play the hand that you've been given
You get out only what you put in

This is life, all a test to see if we'll do our best
Watching if we'll choose the good or be happy with a mess
This is life, love or leave, if you want it, it will be
Waiting for you to live out your dreams you once believed
(Watching if we'll choose the good or be happy with a mess)

Sun comes up on a sandy beach, you were washed on shore by a stormy sea
You're wet and torn
You gotta ten cent piece and a paper sack, now you know there's no turning back
You're far from warm

But still you find (You find)
You've still got heart
Still got time to make it better (Make it better)
(We all make mistakes) We all make mistakes
But then we get up (Then we get up)

'Cause this is life, all a test to see if we'll do our best
Watching if we'll choose the good or be happy with a mess
This is life, love or leave, if you want it, it will be
Waiting for you to live out your dreams you once believed
(Watching if we'll choose the good or be happy with a mess)

This is life, all a test to see if we'll do our best
Watching if we'll choose the good or be happy with a mess
This is life, love or leave, if you want it, it will be
Waiting for you to live out your dreams you once believed

This is life, all a test to see if we'll do our best
Watching if we'll choose the good or be happy with a mess
This is life, love or leave, if you want it, it will be
Waiting for you to live out your dreams you once believed
