This Life

It’s time to see the sun go down It’s time to drink some wine It’s time to be alone with me Don’t be afraid of desire This kind of love always ends anyway Don’t be afraid of me Or this night This life plays with my head a little And I wander in my sleep But I can’t be sure that I am sleeping Because this feels so real Can it be that rain is in my path You play your funny little songs for me And I carry them with me Somewhere I don’t know where And the snow will fall And the sun will shine And I’ll be playing my guitar But I don’t know where I’ll be The next time you think of me Don’t be afraid of desire This kind of love always ends anyway Don’t be afraid of me Or this night All that comes with age Is misery of rage And disappointing memories So let’s go back a ways And play in yesterdays With all that we know now All that comes with age Is wisdom and grace Let’s sit a moment Let’s be in this moment Then moving on ‘Cause we’re always moving on That’s how we are That’s how we’ll be That’s fine with me I guess So don’t be afraid of desire This kind of love always ends anyway So don’t be afraid of this life Oh this life
