Richard Ashcroft - This Thing Called Life lyrics

rate me

Oh, six strings, three chords, ah big dreams

And he don’t let me down (he never)

When the days of rain came (he was there)

He was there for me when I was in pain (in pain)

Yeah I needed a call, he was the real friend

Oh (got his words), he got the words when I’m feeling low

He’s like a skimming stone, like a rainbow

He’s my brother when I’m down when I’m in luck (he is)

He’s my brother when I’m down (Jesus Christ) and I’m out of luck

You know it’s only love so let’s come together (let’s come together)

A little redemptive pleasure (redemptive pleasure), hmmm-hmmmm

Let’s do this thing called life, (let’s do this thing)

Oh let’s try, (let’s try again)

Oh let’s try (let’s try)

Let’s do this thing called life (let’s do this thing)

Hmm let’s try (let’s try again, let’s try again)

Oh let’s try (let’s try)

Don’t have to swim with the tide (fishes)

Swim against the tide and find some hand to hold

Find somebody to show the light (lost in music)

Oh they’re out there in the matrix tonight (All these years)

Oh man I’ve seen so many pages of stories (the blues never ends)

That have drifted down rivers

And the paper, yeah gets lost in the sea, in the oceans

Oh Lord I’m a giver

Oh, it’s just a feeling (it’s just a feeling)

It’s just a feeling (it’s just a feeling)

Let’s do this thing called life, (let’s do this thing called life)

Oh let’s try, (let’s try again)

Oh let’s try (let’s try)

Let’s do this thing called life, (let’s do this thing)

Hmm let’s try, (let’s try again, let’s try again)

Oh let’s try (let’s try)

You gotta learn to swim against the tide

You gotta learn to drop your foolish pride

You gotta learn to know these things they’re dust

You gotta learn that misdeeds only rust.

You gotta learn the chains can open up (these genes survive)

And environment can fuck you up (the eyes)

You gotta learn that drugs don’t really work (more music)

Unless you know the ones that hurt

Oh babe let’s do it again (please baby)

I wanna put the record on and live it again (live it again)

I wanna rewind the tape, turn off the clocks

This is life now, undo my locks

Let’s do this thing called life, (let’s do this thing)

Oh let’s try, (let’s try it again)

Oh let’s try (oh-oh oh-oh let’s try)

Let’s do this thing called life, (I now you feel the pain)

Oh let’s try, (I know you feel the strain)

Oh let’s try (let’s fly)

She’s my brother, my mother, my sister, my mother, my father, ooh-ooh-aah

She’s my brother, my sister, my father, my father, my mother, o-ooh-ooh

(Free me now, please free me now, please hear me now)

Come on

Let’s do this thing called life, (yeah)

Oh let’s try, oh let’s try (let’s try)

(She’s my brother, my mother, my sister, my mother, my father, my mother)

Let’s do this thing called life, oh let’s try

Oooh let’s try (let’s try again, let’s try again)

(She’s my brother, my sister, my mother, my father, my brother)

Free me, yeah free me again, oh heal me again, free me, yeah heal me

Yeah free me, baby heal me, now free me, now heal me baby

(She’s my brother, my sister, my father, my mother, oh-oh-oh)

Free me, now heal me, now free me, now heal me, now free me, now heal me

Now free me, now heal me, now free me, now heal me, now free me, yeah heal me

Now free me, now heal me, yeah free me, yeah heal me

Let’s do this thing called life
