Our lives are a simple story
Played by the hands of fate
And everything goes so wrong
The time you feel most great
Hey, but that's just the way time works
Nothing we can do
Its on of life's little quirks
Everyone knows its truth
Love is why we live
Sadness is why we die
That is just the way life works
There needn't be reason why
Hate is why we're lost
Love is why we're found
There's nothing I'd be without
Your voice's gentle sound
By my side.
Is there something wrong with us
Or is it just that we can't understand?
Our lives are just in an hourglass
Said to be important as each grain of sand
But what happens when that time runs out?
And it doesn't matter who lives?
Thats just the way life goes
That I'm positi-ive.
Love is why we live
Sadness is why we die
That is just the way life works
There needn't be reason why
Hate is why we're lost
Love is why we're found
There's nothing I'd be without
Your voice's gentle sound
By my side.
I thought I could be just as important
But I'm nothing compared to you.
The truth hurts, doesn't it?
When life is just plain cruel.
I can't remember the time before
I met you on that fateful day
If you love me so much
Why can't you say?
Love is why we're here on Earth
Hate is why there's death
We relish the life we continually have
With every passing second's breath
Happiness is why we keep moving on
Sadness increases our will
But whats the point of going on
When I love you still?
Love is why we live
Sadness is why we die
That is just the way life works
There needn't be reason why
Hate is why we're lost
Love is why we're found
There's nothing I'd be without
Your voice's gentle sound
By my side.
