Album: The Will To Live
Year: 1997
I met a girl whose heart was on the right hand side
And upon the left an angel did reside
They told her mother that she never would survive
But she kept the rhythm and is still alive, she's still alive
And we must all have the will to live
Oh, you got to have the will to live
Oh, the will, oh, the will
The will to live
Then I met a man who had to walk with his hands
Born into a world he couldn't stand
Blessed with life but cursed as a man
Still he walks taller than most of us can
And we must all have the will to live
Oh, you got to have the will to live
Oh, the will, oh, the will
The will to live
Some are born with more and some born with less
So don't take for granted the life we've been blessed
It's hard to understand that we're only a guest
And each one of us shall be put to life's test, oh, life's test
And we must all have the will to live
Oh, you got to have the will to live
Oh, the will, oh, the will
The will to live
Oh, the will, oh, the will to live
Oh, the will to live
