10.Life Is Too Short

Modern Talking · Other Songs - Modern Talking

Life is too short, don't throw it away
Hear what I say, if you're lonely
Stand up, if you fall down
Please look around, you're not the only

Life is too short, don't lose your time
The sun will shine, for your tomorrows
You'll win, if you don't lose
Try it again, forget your sorrows

There is a chance, make the best, out of your life
But it's so taugh, only the strong, they will survive
There are always some good reasons to live for
Between the shadow, there's a light, you can't ignore
Don't cry a little, little, cry a little, little tonight

Life is too short, don't throw it away
Hear what I say, if you're lonely
Stand up, if you fall down
Please look around, you're not the only, baby, baby

Life is just too short, you can't run away
Baby let me be your soul survivor
Life is just to short, baby everyday
Baby I will lift you, high and higher

No where to go you're always in my heart I swear
Baby I know, if you need me, I'll be there
I will never ever leave you alone, oh no
And we have so many reasons to go, oh no
Don't cry a little, little, cry a little, little tonight
