I came to you in dark despair I needed someone who would care. You held me close against your heart I felt a warmth right from the start. Then one day He took you away Why did it happen, who can say? Now all that there is left for me Is just a precious memory.
That's life, that's life You take the joy, you take the sorrow. That's life, that's life You're here today and gone tomorrow.
My life has crumbled since you've gone But somehow I must carry on. The pain I feel I can't describe. I can't forget you, though I've tried. Each night I say a little prayer That when He takes me you'll be there. Together once again we'll be I'll live again my memory.
That's life, that's life You take the joy, you take the sorrow. That's life, that's life You're here today and gone tomorrow.
That's life, that's life You take the joy, you take the sorrow. That's life, that's life You're here today and gone tomorrow.
