Paroles: Shannon Noll. Lift. This Is It.

What are we waiting for?

There are no bells and no parades

No one to knock on your door

There are no signs to show the way

All there is is what we have right now

We can act our way and we can fake it



CHORUS

This is it

This is life

And there's no break

No second takes to get it right

Yeah, this is life



What are we hiding from?

Maybe the mistakes we've made

Why don't we make some more?

Life's gonna go on anyway

All we get is a moment in time

We can fall right now or we can make it



CHORUS

This is it

This is life

And there's no breaks


No second takes to make it right

This is me, talking to you

And all that counts is here and now

And what we do

Yeah, this is life, this is life



Everybody dies but not everybody lives

Everybody takes but not everybody gives

Every single day is another chance to take that ride



CHORUS

This is it

This is life

And there's no breaks

No second takes to make it right

This is me, talking to you

And all that counts is here and now

And what we do

Yeah, this is life

And there's no breaks

No second takes to make it right

Yeah, this is life

This is life

This is me and you
