Everybody needs this kinda love Only to taste and not to fall back onto some kind of evil A love so light, I wouldn't notice A love so light, I wouldn't believe it And all this got me thinking Until all this fades out and time catches up to me (and time catches up to me) Blurs up my mind and tires me out (blurs up my mind and tires me out) I'll make the most of it all I wouldn't have it any other way No mask on, no cover All clear, like a clueless lover (all clear, like a clueless lover) Guess faking's absurd Wouldn't waste up my words Just to cut through the herd Just to play the part in your Hollywood scripted picture It's my life, and I'm going my way It's my life, I'll do it my way And all I'm tryna get to is Make it worth your while And don't go take this for granted (for granted) Life's too short to be missing out (life's too short to be missing out) So take the rise, take the fall, or take it all (or take it all) Take life as it comes, brother (take life as it comes, brother) 'Cause no one else will live it for you, mm Mm, mm, mm Mm, mm, mm Yea, no one else Will live it for you, mm

Time to live Time to lie Time to laugh Time to die Take it easy, baby Take it as it comes Don't move too fast If you want your love to last Oh, you've been moving much too fast Time to walk Time to run Time to aim your arrows At the sun Take it easy, baby Take it as it comes Don't move too fast If you want your love to last Oh, you've been moving much too fast Go real slow You'll like it more and more Take it as it comes Specialize in having fun Take it easy, baby Take it as it comes Don't move too fast If you want your love to last Oh, you've been moving much too fast Moving much too fast Moving much too fast

Raise the window on another day Take it as it comes Just an actor waiting for a new play Take it as it comes Ask me to dance, I will dance for you Ask me to sing, and see what I do If you feel sad, I'll make jokes for you I'm a handyman, I'm still coming through If you suffer from a broken heart Take it as it comes If your lover tears your world all apart Take it as it comes I've played a king and a down and and out fool Some like it hot, some like it cool Do what they want, but don't be their tool Savor the throne, don't mind the stool Carry on, carry on, carry on ... If they go too far, that's the way things are Though it may hurt some, take it as it comes We're all skating on the thinnest of ice Got to take it as it comes In a world that is not so very nice Got to take it as it comes Any day now the curtain may fall All the plays end, there's no curtain call If you live sad, or if you walk tall We're written on a wind that's a lot to haul Carry on, carry on, carry on ... If they go too far, that's the way things are Though your mind gets numb, take it as it comes

How long's the road ahead of me? How far back did you begin? Traveling fast, you never last, never can be I left you behind, that was unkind, I think you'll agree It always comes back around It always comes back around How many times I've been broken? How many ways did before? I fell in love, long time ago, when I was young I was so lost, all done before it had begun It always comes back around It always comes back around If ever you tried to remember me Think of the good, think of the bad When you feel 'lone, try to keep on, feet on the ground Watch what you say, all that you do, will come back around It always comes back around It always comes back around It always comes back around It always comes back around

There is a better fight A cause close to my heart The struggle against loneliness That's tearing you apart Where are you gonna run to now from loneliness? (Loneliness) Who are you gonna turn to out of loneliness? (Loneliness) Like Ringo walking by the canal Downcast and alone You're taking time to play that part A man who skims a stone Where are you gonna run to now from loneliness? (Loneliness) Who are you gonna turn to out of loneliness? (Loneliness) When are you gonna not say no and make the answer yes? Who is here to help you out? Tell me, can't you guess? (Loneliness) (Loneliness) Wherever you go, you take yourself with you There's nowhere you can hide From the loneliness that's haunting your life The sense of wounded pride Everybody needs time to think Nobody can live without love Who you gonna run to now from loneliness? (Loneliness) Who could come and help you out? Oh, can't you guess? (Loneliness) When you gonna not say no and make the answer yes? Who is here to help you turn your back on loneliness? (Loneliness) (Loneliness)

Farewell to the mountains Goodbye to the trees So long to the ski slopes Join the absentees Salzburg is a cradle Rocking you no more Memory the only thing That's still worth living for Wiedersehen Auf Wiedersehen Wie wir gehen Auf Wiedersehen Books are in their boxes Manuscripts are packed A dealer expressed interest So paintings were dispatched The ladies from the village Say tearful goodbyes The gardener locks the greenhouse Suspicion in his eyes Wiedersehen Auf Wiedersehen Wie wir gehen Auf Wiedersehen The world before the war Exquisite in your dreams Still bore the angry children Who only saw extremes You never saw it coming What was it they lacked? The civilised rejected Modernity attacked Wiedersehen Auf Wiedersehen Wie wir gehen Auf Wiedersehen Your old friend Freud has helped you Illuminate the hate Find motive in desire But now it's much too late The train is on the platform The knife is in your back Your suitcases are sitting On the luggage rack Wiedersehen Auf Wiedersehen Auf Wiedersehen Wie wir gehen Auf Wiedersehen Auf Wiedersehen
