Lyrics

[00:11.96] 8 years just all went down the drain
[00:16.01] I'll make sure I make it up to you
[00:25.25] Try not to make the same mistakes again
[00:29.35] I keep my word and make it work for you
[00:33.12]
[00:36.91] So what I'm trying to say is
[00:39.06] Lay it down
[00:45.72]
[00:46.87] There's no way to win
[00:48.88] this life ain't always fair
[00:53.30] And once you learn how to play it
[00:56.44] You still ain't there
[01:00.21] Just hold your breath and watch the sun
[01:03.35] but don't get burned
[01:06.74] But help the ones you love
[01:09.16] and try in your own way
[01:13.02] To be free
[01:16.23]
[01:17.62] Don't worry 'bout how it all went wrong
[01:22.07] 'Cause it won't change the past you see
[01:29.32] And despite all the things I know
[01:35.26] There's no place that I would rather be
[01:39.09]
[01:44.99] Just hold on
[01:51.68]
[01:52.71] What it all comes down to
[01:55.20] we will be just fine
[01:59.46] But every now and then
[02:01.63] you'll find out there's no way
[02:06.17] Out of this troubled state of mind I say
[02:12.96] Sometimes you won't understand
[02:16.07] the way they play
[02:18.86] But it won't break you
[02:24.53]
[02:31.20] (I'm gonna make you believe)
[02:32.85] I'm gonna make you see
[02:35.03] You have to love
[02:37.61] (I'm gonna make you believe)
[02:40.03] The things that life is giving you my child
[02:44.67] (I'm gonna make you believe)
[02:46.35] I'm gonna make you baby
[02:48.30] make you make you baby
[02:51.57] (I'm gonna make you believe)
[02:53.74] And I'll be here to love you
[02:57.97] There we go
[03:04.66]
[03:05.35] There's no way to win
[03:07.45] this life ain't always fair
[03:12.18] But ones you learn how to play it
[03:14.61] You still ain't there
[03:18.83] Just hold your breath and watch the sun
[03:21.42] but baby don't get burned
[03:25.64] And help the ones you love
[03:27.76] and try in your own way
[03:31.52] To be free
[03:35.32]
