Lyrics
People come people go
Sometimes high sometimes low
Looping in, spinning out
Is that what it's all about?
Hands pull left, hands pull right
Sometimes fun, sometime fight
Frazzled ends, or flex and bend
Reactions we never intend
When we hang by a tattered thread
Only hearts and hands can mend
The fabric we call life
The fabric we call life
Giving in, taking from
Sometimes when it's wrong
Even close-knit relations split
When the tears are just too strong
Getting to know, letting go
We're all so intertwined
Making waves from birth to grave
Choosing to speak our mind
When we hang by a tattered thread
Only hearts and hands can mend
The fabric we call life
The fabric we call life
Don't know what's comin' this way
'round the clock very next day
But, a heart can feel
When it's real
When we hang by a tattered thread
Only hearts and hands can mend
The fabric we call life
The fabric we call life
Life!
