Lyrics I'd written in 2013 for a friend going through a tough family issue. Found them, Nov 2020, and decided they were perfect for what we are all going through these days.

V1 D
There comes that day you wake up
And find that life has changed
You turn around and blink your eyes
And suddenly all seems strange
But you know that it's just life
And that's how it's gonna be
Each new day brings new beginnings
And your dreams can set you free
Chorus
Life was made for living
So don't let it slip away
Take the time that's given you
And live in that time today
You'll never know what's coming
At the start of each new day
So live like there's no tomorrow
And your dreams will lead the way...Lead the way
V2
Sometimes our lives will take us
On journeys we don't plan
Take a deep breath, ride them through
Enjoy them when you can
Every day gives you a chance
To live, to love, and learn
So don't pass up a single dance
When life says it's YOUR turn
Chorus
Life was made for living
So don't let it slip away
Take the time that's given you
And live in that time today
You'll never know what's coming
At the start of each new day
So live like there's no tomorrow
And your dreams will lead the way...Lead the way
Bridge
Every day's a blessing
Every friend's a gift for you
So never waste a single chance
To live your whole life through
Try to hear the music
That plays for you each day
And you won't be left wondering
How your dance slipped away... slipped away
V1 Reprise
There comes that day you wake up
And find that life has changed
You turn around and blink your eyes
Suddenly all seems strange
But you know that it's just life
And that's how it's gonna be
Each new day brings new beginnings
And your dreams can set you free
Chorus
Life was made for living
So don't let it slip away
Take the time that's given you
And live in that time today
You'll never know what's coming
At the start of each new day
So live like there's no tomorrow
And your dreams will lead the way...Lead the way
