Life Goes Up

Life goes up, life goes down

Today you glide where tomorrow you fall

Today someone's giving you a smile

Where tomorrow he's not there

Today you're asking, "How are you?"

Tomorrow you don't care

Don't you think about the past though it hurts

Look forward to your chance

One day you think you've got it then it's gone

The wind blew it out of your hands

Today you're right, well, tomorrow wrong

Today you woke up six a.m. and frozen

But tomorrow that winter's gone

So won't you tell me on and on and on and on and on and on and on

What you think I have to do?

Take a look at yourself

Your own stuff is enough for you

And tell my mother I had to leave the town

I grew up as I did and life goes up, life goes down

Tell my mother I had to leave the town

I grew up as I did and life goes up, life goes down

Life goes up, life goes down

Life goes up, life goes down

Life goes up, life goes down

Life goes up, life goes down

Life goes up

Life goes up
