You wrote it in your email that you're sad and lonely
'Cause a girl in college has stolen your heart
And so my estimation of the situation
Is I bet you can't stand being apart
Listen son you goin' to find a sense of perspective
Ain't no use to bury your weight in the sand
Although I kinda like your evolution of spirit
You know you got to fall before you learn how to stand
Nobody's gonna know what it's like
To walk a mile in your shoes
Such most sayin' it's a wonderful world
But you make it it's up to you
Let yourself fly, let yourself cry
And years will disappear in a blink of an eye
There's music in your head , and it holds your plans
Then handle be heaven wenches in your heart
So love the life you live
And live the life you love
Everybody here has been asking about you
When's that boy of yours gonna be coming home
And when I hear the bells ringing down at the school yard
Kinda reminds me of when you were young
You know you gotta polarize your concentration
I know that girl of yours gonna understand
Never underestimate the power of affection
When you got the world in the palm of your hands
Don't go looking for the pot of gold
Or the light miracle mile
Hundred has lost in your home backyard
Be talking it could take a while
Walk down the aisle, with that big old smile
Collect your diploma with your head up high
Study with your soul, ten weeks left on
We'll always remember, let the good times roll
Another life you live
And live the life you love
Nobody's gonna know what it's like
To walk a mile in your shoes
Such most sayin' it's a wonderful world
But you make it it's up to you
So walk by the lake hand in hand
Try and see the sunset in the far away land
Tell her you love her don't be afraid
And keep every promise that you ever made
And love the life you live
Live the life you love
Love the life you live
Live the life you love
You gotta love it
You gotta love it
Make the most of it
You only got one chance
So take it with your hands
Love the life you live
'Cause a girl in college has stolen your heart
And so my estimation of the situation
Is I bet you can't stand being apart
Listen son you goin' to find a sense of perspective
Ain't no use to bury your weight in the sand
Although I kinda like your evolution of spirit
You know you got to fall before you learn how to stand
Nobody's gonna know what it's like
To walk a mile in your shoes
Such most sayin' it's a wonderful world
But you make it it's up to you
Let yourself fly, let yourself cry
And years will disappear in a blink of an eye
There's music in your head , and it holds your plans

So love the life you live
And live the life you love

Love the life you live
