Life Is Sweet

Life Is Sweet - Mandy Gonzalez/Christopher Jackson

I'm not one to back down

But I know what it's like to fall

Gotta a lotta get up and fight now

But I hit my knees when I got that call

Do you know what it's like

To look your demons in the eye

Do you know what it's like

To tell your beautiful wife

That the man that she loves

The fabric of her life

Is breakin' down

But I don't ask why me

I just say why not

Take all that I've been given

Turn it into livin'

For somebody else

Coz I know that

I'm loved

I can say that it's enough

To try to learn

To give love in return

To everyone you meet

Yeah say life is sweet

There's a right and a wrong way

There's a cost for every goal

There's a light down the hallway

In that bedroom sleeps the most precious soul

Do you know what it's like

To watch your sleeping child

Feel her heart beneath your hands

Like a hummingbird wild

And though you do all that you can

To go the extra mile

To watch her grow

You don't ask why me

You just say why not

Take all that I've been given

And turn it into livin'

For somebody else

Coz now I know that

I'm loved

And I can say that it's enough

To try to learn

To give love in return

To everyone we meet

And I say life is sweet

There are monsters that hide in the darkness

When we are alone

Ooo but we follow the light

Every best way we

Find our way home

I don't ask why me

I just say why not

Taken all that I've been given

And turn it into livin'

For somebody else

Somebody else

Coz I know that I'm loved

I can say that it's enough

I try my best to learn

To give love in return

To everyone we meet

Yeah say life is sweet

Life is sweet

Life is sweet

Life is sweet

Life is sweet
