The Great Art of Living
Song by Jay Ray
From the cradle to the grave, to the end of days
We all should dance while it lasts
Don't wait for another chance
It's written in the stars, in the stones, in our scars
The notes of life are running out of time, by leaving all behind, that's something to keep in mind
Nothing is waterproof, our dreams, hopes and free will
Deaf, dumb and blind and sanity's out of sight
But still, it flows within
Nothing is fireproof, our flesh, papers and the truth
It's true what they say, it's incorporated in our DNA
Small things make what we see, as the essence of every human being
Break it down
It's written in the stars, in the stones, in our scars
No matter what you're taking part, in a wonderful piece of art
It dwells deep beneath, the basic instinct that keeps us alive
No need to believe in, no faith is required to survive
There is nothing left to say, only the music can take the breath away
Difference between you and me, it is the greatest art of living
In perfect harmony, from minor to major key
By using the whole range of scale, the notes of life will be then rearranged
Nothing is fireproof, our flesh, papers and the truth
Even the stars are already set to burn
Nothing is waterproof, our dreams, hopes and free will
They drown as the tide turns and closes in
It's written in the stars, in the stones, in our scars
No matter what you're taking part, in a wonderful piece of art
It dwells deep beneath, the basic instinct that keeps us alive
No need to believe in, no faith is required to survive
Survive
We all should dance while it lasts
Don't wait for another chance
It's written in the stars, in the stones, in our scars
The notes of life are running out of time, by leaving all behind, that's something to keep in mind
Nothing is waterproof, our dreams, hopes and free will
Deaf, dumb and blind and sanity's out of sight
But still, it flows within
Nothing is fireproof, our flesh, papers and the truth
It's true what they say, it's incorporated in our DNA
Small things make what we see, as the essence of every human being
Break it down
It's written in the stars, in the stones, in our scars
No matter what you're taking part, in a wonderful piece of art
It dwells deep beneath, the basic instinct that keeps us alive
No need to believe in, no faith is required to survive
There is nothing left to say, only the music can take the breath away
Difference between you and me, it is the greatest art of living
In perfect harmony, from minor to major key
By using the whole range of scale, the notes of life will be then rearranged
Nothing is fireproof, our flesh, papers and the truth
Even the stars are already set to burn
Nothing is waterproof, our dreams, hopes and free will
They drown as the tide turns and closes in
It's written in the stars, in the stones, in our scars
No matter what you're taking part, in a wonderful piece of art
It dwells deep beneath, the basic instinct that keeps us alive
No need to believe in, no faith is required to survive
Survive
