In This Life

In this life there are things,
I can't explain
In this life there are changes,
Because nothing stays the same
In this life there are dreams!
And people who live them
In this life there are dreams!
And people who lose them...!

This is me! This is you!
These are the things we do
This is love! This is life!
These are the things we choose
This is joy! This is pain!
This is living without shame
If, you could only see,
The world, the same as it is to me!

This is me...
This is you...

In this life there have been,
Times I've cried
In this life my heart sometimes,
Has felt less than alive
In this life there are things!
That I simply cannot prove
In this life there are things!
So many things, so true!

This is me! This is you!
These are the things we do
This is love! This is life!
These are the things we choose
This is joy! This is pain!
This is living without shame
And, if you could only see,
That the world around you,
Is not quite empty!

This is me...
This is you...!

In this life there are people,
Who need...
In this life there are people,
Who bleed...
In this life there are people,
We have yet to meet
In this life, there are times,
That you must simply fight!
In this life, there are times,
You've got to do what's right...!

This is me! This is you!
These are the things we do!
This is love! This is life!
These are the things we choose!
This is joy! This is pain!
This is living without shame!
And, if you would just believe,
If you, could see just what I see!
I wonder what, this world could be?
This is you...this is me...
