Lyrics
BREATHE ON
LIFE IS SWEET AND LIFE IS SOUR
WHAT MATTERS IN OUR FINAL HOUR?
THE THINGS WE'VE DONE?
THE THINGS WE'VE SAID?
DO THESE THINGS MATTER WHEN WE'RE DEAD?
TO DO TODAY, TO FEEL THIS WAY
TO MAKE THEM LAUGH AND THEN TO SAY
THAT LIFE IS ONLY NOW - YOU KNOW
IT DOESN'T MATTER 'WHEN' WE GO
FACE THE SUN, AND FACE THE WINDS
BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE OUR LIFE BEGINS
AND FEEL THE RAIN, AND FEEL THE SMILE
IN EYES - AND THAT'S WHERE
LIFE'S SECRET LIES
WE HUMAN BEINGS CAN'T RELATE
TO LIFE REACHING IT'S FINAL GATE
WE'RE HERE, WE'RE WARM, WE FEEL, WE MOVE
BEYOND THAT NOTHING MUCH TO PROVE
BREATHE ON!!
