Life Left To Go


You can smile in the midst. Of a winter storm. Dance in the street. Like the world is yours. Sing to the sky. Like the stars can hear. Face the danger. Without any fear. You can scream. You can shout. You can keep on walking. Don't turn around. You can laugh. You can cry. Believe in what you want. And baby you'll fly high. Oh you'll fly high. Oh you'll fly high. Smile cause you can. And baby you'll never die.
 
 
Talk about love. Like you know a thing or two. Wait long enough. And it'll happen to you. Hold your breath. As you drive through the tunnels. Pretty good practice. For when you're under. You can scream. You can shout. You can keep on walking. Don't turn around. You can laugh. You can cry. Believe in what you want. And baby you'll fly high. Oh you'll fly high. Oh you'll fly high. Smile cause you can. And baby you'll never die
 
 
Don't say goodbye. Don't sell your soul. It won't be this way. For long. Don't say goodbye. Don't sell your soul. There's still too much life. Left to go. Don't say goodbye. Don't sell your soul. It won't be this way. For long. Don't say goodbye. Don't sell your soul. There's still too much life. Left to go
 
 
You can scream. You can shout. You can keep on walking. Don't turn around. You can laugh. You can cry. Believe in what you want. And baby you'll fly high. Oh you'll fly high. Oh you'll fly high. Smile cause you can. And baby you'll never die. And you can scream. You can shout. You can fight all you want. But don't ever doubt yourself.
