Bono - That´S Life(Bono) lyrics

rate me

That's life <br />

<br />

that's what all the people say<br />

You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May<br />

But I know I'm gonna change that tune<br />

When I'm back on top, back on top in June<br />

<br />

I say, that's life, and as funny as it may seem<br />

Some people get their kicks steppin' on a dream<br />

But I don't let it, get me down<br />

Cause this fine old world, it keeps spinning around<br />

<br />

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet - a pawn and a king<br />

I've been up and down and over and out - and I know one thing:<br />

Each time I find myself flat on my face<br />

<br />

I pick myself up and get back in the race<br />

That's life - I tell you - I can't deny it:<br />

I thought of quittin', baby, but my heart just ain't gonna buy it<br />

And if I didn't think it was worth one single try<br />

I'd jump right on a big bird an then I'd fly<br />

<br />

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet - a pawn and a king<br />

I've been up and down and over and out - I know one thing:<br />

Each time I find myself, laying flat on my face<br />

I just pick myself up and get back in the race<br />

<br />

That's life. that's life, and I can't deny it:<br />

Many times I thought of cuttin' out, but my heart won't buy it<br />

But if there's nothing shakin' come this here July<br />

I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball...<br />

And die<br />

My, my
