Lou Rawls - One Life To Live Lyrics

Lou Rawls Lyrics

"One Life To Live"

You've only got one life to live
So live it in peace, live it in truth, live it in love

And then you live each day
Like it's your last one
You take control of your emotions
All your doubts and fears
And just at the world, and all it's sadness

And replace joy for those salty, bitter tears
'Cause you've got one life to live
So live it in peace, live it in truth, live it in love
And you greet every day with a little love in your heart
You go and do all the things you desire
All the things you dream of
Because today is the beginning of a brand new life
You have to fail sometimes in order for you to succeed

You got one life to live
So live it in peace, live it in truth, live it in love

If you're feelin' down and out let's sing
If you're sad I'll make you laugh
And if you become puffed up with too much pride
Remember that everything, everything must pass

You got one life to live
So live it in peace, live it in truth, live it in love
You've got one life to live
So give it your all
Give it a lot
Give it your best shot
You got one life to live
So live it in peace, live it in truth, live it in love
