Lyrics
In the hard times, in the crosslines
And you're wishin' you had another bloodline
No pain, no gain - it don't come for free
It's a toll that you pay so your heart can beat
This is real time, we don't get nine
But if your strength is low you can use mine
Though you might feel down, never feel alone
Cuz we'll take it like a team 'til the thing is gone
If one life is all we get, we'd better make the best of it
I won't let you give up on this life
(x2)
CHORUS
You only going to get this one (one life to live, to learn, to love)
So stop walking and start to run (one life to live, to learn, to love)
Don't ever stop until your life is done
Because you only get one
Gettin' symptoms, then remission
And you're startin' to dread the repetition
If it came here once, it could come again
But if you take it head on, then I know you'll win
There's the long kind and the short kind
But whatever you get it's still a lifetime
There's a lot more left once you got it beat
So hold your head up high for the rest to see
If one life is all we get, we'd better make the best of it
I won't let you give up on this life
(x2)
CHORUS
Life is a game that's meant to be played
Gotta put in the work if you wanna get paid
Keep workin', keep fightin', Keep lettin' the light in
(x2)
One life to live, to learn, to love
One life to live, to learn, to love
CHORUS
