This ain't a song for the brokenhearted No silent prayer for the faith departed And I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd You're gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud
It's my life It's now or never I ain't gonna live forever I just wanna live while I'm alive
(It's my life) My heart is like an open highway Like Frankie said, "I did it my way" I just wanna live while I'm alive 'Cause it's my life
This is for the ones who stood their ground For Tommy and Gina who never backed down Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake Luck ain't even lucky, gotta make your own breaks
It's my life And it's now or never I ain't gonna live forever I just wanna live while I'm alive
(It's my life) My heart is like an open highway Like Frankie said, "I did it my way" I just wanna live while I'm alive 'Cause it's my life
You better stand tall When they're calling you out Don't bend, don't break Baby, don't back down
My song for a while now has been ~ While I'm Waiting by John Waller from the movie Fireproof.
I chose it because that's the path I decided to take in this nightmare with my H in MLC. I have been treating him with unconditional love that has really even surprised me. Some of us on this forum know where the strength for that is coming from.
If you go away on this summer's day, Then you might as well take the sun away All the birds that flew in the summer sky When our love was new and our hearts were high When the day was young and the nights were long And the moon stood still for the night bird's song If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.
But if you stay, I'll make you a day Like no day has been, or will be again We'll sail on the sun, we'll ride on the rain And talk to the trees and worship the wind But if you go, I'll understand Leave me just enough love to fill up my hand If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.
If you go, as I know you will You must tell the world to stop turning Till you return again, if you ever do, For what good is love without loving you? Can I tell you now, as you turn to go I'll be dying slowly till the next hello If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.
But if you stay, I'll make you a night Like no night has been, or will be again I'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much But if you go, I won't cry Though the good is gone from the word goodbye If you go away, if you go away, if you go away.
If you go away, as I know you must There is nothing left in this world to trust Just an empty room, full of empty space Like the empty look I see on your face I'd have been the shadow of your shadow If you might have kept me by your side If you go away, if you go away, if you go away..

For those moments of total mojolation, even though it suffered terribly from Heavy Rotation (and if you're d'une certain age, you know what that phrase means), "Tubthumping" by Chumbawumba.
