lyrics

LIFES A SHOW P. PASCOE

SHOW TO ME IT'S TIME TO OPEN WIDE THERE'S NO NEED TO HIDE
BEHIND YOUR CAREFUL CHARADE
SHARE WITH ME WHAT YOUR TRUE THOUGHTS ARE
LOOKING BACK SO FAR
AT THIS LIFE THAT WE'VE MADE

AS THE EMBERS GLOW IN THE QUIET FIRE WITH YOUR DEEPEST SIGH
LET YOUR MIND WANDER FREE
SHOW YOURSELF WHAT'S YOUR TRUE DESIRE
WHEN YOU THINK HIGHER
THAN THE THINGS WE HEAR AND WE SEE

SO PLAY YOUR PART LIKE ITS YOUR FINAL HOUR
COS LIFE'S AN ART, FEEL THE POWER
TAKE YOUR OWN TRUE PATH AROUND EACH BLIND BEND
FEEL THE LOVE HAVE A LAUGH
AS WE FIND THERES NO END TO THIS SHOW

THIS TIME AROUND KEEP AN OPEN MIND IN YOUR DREAM YOU’LL FIND
SO MUCH LOVE WAITING THERE
ON YOUR BITTER PAST A CURTAIN FALLS
THERE'S NO NEED TO DWELL
IN THAT SHADOWY LAND

AND YOU KNOW THERES A FIRE INSIDE
DRIVES US ON AS WE GROW
THERES NO DENYING THERES A RIDE WE’RE ON
THERES NO END TO THIS SHOW

SO PLAY YOUR PART LIKE IT'S YOUR FINAL HOUR
COS LIFE'S AN ART, FEEL THE POWER
TAKE YOUR OWN TRUE PATH AROUND EACH BLIND BEND
FEEL THE LOVE HAVE A LAUGH AS WE FIND

THIS LIFE'S A SHOW AN EVER CHANGING ROLE
LOVE AND GROW IN THE LIGHT
LIVE YOUR ONE TRUE DREAM
REACH FOR THE HIGHEST STARS
WHO'S TO KNOW WHO'D DARE TO PRETEND
THERE'S NO END
TO THIS SHOW
