Life is like a roller coaster |
|
It's up and down, it's over and over again ' |
|
Til it ends |
|
The way I figure it, it's grist for the mill |
|
A lesson you learn in every hard spill you take |
|
There's no mistake |
|
Chorus: We're all diamonds in the rough |
|
We'll all shine soon enough |
|
Struggles in this life can make you strong |
|
We waste the good times and the bad |
|
But keep in mind that when you're sad |
|
Those tears of joy and sorrow lead you home |
|
Every drop of water shapes the stone |
|
You wouldn't know it by lookin' at me now |
|
Not long ago, |
|
I was down for the count and scared |
|
Didn't think |
|
I had a prayer |
|
But I found the strength to get over that mountain |
|
It took a little time, but nobody's countin' anyway |
|
So I'm here to say |
|
Chorus Bridge: |
|
There's a masterpiece in every heart |
|
An ever changing work of art |
|
Chorus Life is kind of like a roller coaster |
|
Up and down, over and over again ' |
|
Til it ends |
