This is my life

This is my life

this is my time

you show me the light

and I go there.



Give me the wine

bitter and sweet

and a little bit of bread

that's all I need.



No, I don't want the gold from Xanadu

I think I leave it all to you

this is my life and I don't care.



This is my street,

are you restless feet

carry me on to anywhere.



Take the fear

take it away

and give me some hope

for one more day.



I saw a ghost behind the door

when the kids were coming home from the war

with broken dreams and nothing more.



I heard a woman singing her song

and it was good and warm and strong

She made me cry I don't know why.



I don't want to bring you down

I think it's good to be here

this is my life and I don't care!
