such is life...

when it's all that you've got
you can take it or leave it
believe it or not
beg, steal, or borrow
with all that you've bought
soon come tomorrow
all may be lost

such is life...

as you live for today
in no time you find
it's been taken away
hold back in silence
or shout out your say
in total defiance
as you do it your way

such is life...

when there's only one
hurtled through space
third rock from the sun
always last place
is how most mostly run
as we come face to face
with the coming undone

such is life...

the good with the bad
happy go lucky
tug of heart sad
the taking of much
with the no giving back
such is life
when that's all there is
