Raise the window on another day Take it as it comes Just an actor waiting for a new play Take it as it comes Ask me to dance, I will dance for you Ask me to sing, and see what I do If you feel sad, I'll make jokes for you I'm a handyman, I'm still coming through If you suffer from a broken heart Take it as it comes If your lover tears your world all apart Take it as it comes I've played a king and a down and and out fool Some like it hot, some like it cool Do what they want, but don't be their tool Savor the throne, don't mind the stool Carry on, carry on, carry on ... If they go too far, that's the way things are Though it may hurt some, take it as it comes We're all skating on the thinnest of ice Got to take it as it comes In a world that is not so very nice Got to take it as it comes Any day now the curtain may fall All the plays end, there's no curtain call If you live sad, or if you walk tall We're written on a wind that's a lot to haul Carry on, carry on, carry on ... If they go too far, that's the way things are Though your mind gets numb, take it as it comes

Everybody needs this kinda love Only to taste and not to fall back onto some kind of evil A love so light, I wouldn't notice A love so light, I wouldn't believe it And all this got me thinking Until all this fades out and time catches up to me (and time catches up to me) Blurs up my mind and tires me out (blurs up my mind and tires me out) I'll make the most of it all I wouldn't have it any other way No mask on, no cover All clear, like a clueless lover (all clear, like a clueless lover) Guess faking's absurd Wouldn't waste up my words Just to cut through the herd Just to play the part in your Hollywood scripted picture It's my life, and I'm going my way It's my life, I'll do it my way And all I'm tryna get to is Make it worth your while And don't go take this for granted (for granted) Life's too short to be missing out (life's too short to be missing out) So take the rise, take the fall, or take it all (or take it all) Take life as it comes, brother (take life as it comes, brother) 'Cause no one else will live it for you, mm Mm, mm, mm Mm, mm, mm Yea, no one else Will live it for you, mm

I can't be cool Or nonchalant Call me an impulsive fool You're all I want You may be right It's too much, too soon To talk of love all night In your bedroom I don't know why It always comes as a surprise To find I'm here with you You smile and I am rubbing my eyes At a dream come true I won't play games Or waste your time But I won't feel ashamed To speak my mind So just relax Don't question why For calculated facts Will not apply I don't know why It always comes as a surprise To find I'm here with you You smile and I am rubbing my eyes At a dream come true In my life there've been few Who've affected me the way you do (You do, you do) I'll tell no lies I won't pretend But if you've a broken heart I'll help it mend I don't know why It always comes as a surprise To find I'm here with you You smile and I am rubbing my eyes At a dream come true Smile and I am rubbing my eyes At a dream come true

Oh the night time's the hardest time And it knows all my lies But it feels like the right time To open my eyes You know the saying It comes and it goes You know the saying It comes and it goes Oh the night time mystifies So I'll wait for sunrise 'Cause it feels like we're out of time And it's hard as we try You know the saying It comes and it goes You know the saying It comes and it goes You know the saying You know the saying You know the saying It comes and it goes It comes and it goes You know the saying You know the saying It comes and it goes

Whatever you want, whatever you need Show me the way, I'll go where you lead You pick the time You set the speed, my darling However you feel, whatever you choose Time it can heal, life it can bruise I'm here when you win I'm here when you lose, my darling I don't care who's wrong I don't care who's right Life isn't long We've no time to fight Stay with me today Lay with me tonight my darling However it comes, wherever it goes Water will run, wind it will blow No one can say for nobody knows My darling I don't care who's wrong I don't care who's right Life isn't long We've no time to fight Stay with me today Lay with me tonight my darling Yeah, I don't care who's wrong I don't care who's right Life isn't long We've no time to fight Stay with me today Lay with me tonight, my darling

Lord, how it comes is how it goes, You don't need to chase my ghost anymore, Ghosts in those cuts I used to see Are the cuts that you would see in me So how it comes is how it goes Kinda seems a cruel joke, We don't need to be our fools no more I saved you now you save me You needed to leave, But I can't blame you for anything Girls, some girls are talking mad, About things and lives and love they never had, But you, you should run free And be the one you were always going to be... (Chorus)

I can't deny what I've become I'm just emotionally undone I can't deny, I can't be someone else When I have tried to find the words To describe this sense absurd Try to resist my thoughts, but I can't lie I'm losing myself My desire I can't have No reason am I for I can't divide or hide from me I don't know who I'm meant to be I guess it's just the person that I am Often I've dreamt that I don't wait Enjoy the gift of my mistake Again again I'm wrong and I confess I'm losing myself My desire I can't have No reason am I for I'm losing myself My desire I can't have No reason am I for
