LYRICS:
There we were
weaving arm in arm
through these aching city streets
the chaos and the calm
I was wildfire
raging out of control
you were the rain
oh so gently fallin’
Oh so it goes another good one gone too young
How do we pick the pieces up and carry on?
when sometimes life feels like swallowing stones
sometimes life
There were times
when we’d stumble out of step
and a phone call was all it took
to pick up where we left
oh this life, she’ll rob you blind
when your back’s turned
I guess I was a fool for thinking
we had all the time in the world
Oh so it goes another good one gone too young
How do we pick the pieces up and carry on?
when sometimes life feels like swallowing stones
sometimes life feels like swallowing stones
sometimes life
