Lyrics
Gotta give it up, gotta let it go
'Cause hangin' on like this
Only breaks the flow
Gotta act as if it's all for the best
'Cause maybe it is and if it is
It's worth the test
You gotta pick your battles
You gotta let 'em roll
You gotta dig down deep
And let it touch your soul
'Cause this is your life
This is your day
Ain't no dress rehearsal, girl
So get on your way
Smell the roses, dig the ride
You can't take it with you
When you say goodbye
'Cause this is your life
This is your life
Get outta your head
Get into your heart
Forgive and forget, baby
You take it too hard
'Cause time is flyin'
Time won't wait
I've seen it all
Make no mistake
This is your life
This is your day
Ain't no dress rehearsal, girl
So get on your way
Smell the roses
Dig the ride
You can't with you
When you say goodbye
You can sit there in your cloud
You can open up your eyes
Right know and you'll see
I'll be the first one so trust me
Gotta give it up, gotta let it go
'Cause hangin' on like this
Only breaks the flow
This is your life
This is your day
Ain't no dress rehearsal, girl
So get on your way
Smell the roses
Dig the ride
You can't take it with you
When you say goodbye
'Cause this is your life
Give it all that you got, girl
This is your life, baby (this is your life)
This is your life
