This Life

by Moacir Santos

Lyrics
And so it was, I found this life was a dream
And so it was, I found this love was a draw
If this is so, whatever living may seem
It can be told with some old story or rhyme
It's a helter skelter world, full of crumbs and Christmas pie
It's a jim and dandy game with an apple in your eye
It's a topsy turvy love, such as you and I have made
With a giant stepping round, doing just what Simon says

And so it was, I found this life was a dream
And so it was, I found this love was a draw
If this is so, whatever living may seem
It can be told with some old story or rhyme
It's a motorized express, full of bolts and gears and things
It's a feather in your nest with a robin red-breast sings
It's a Mary with her lamb looking for a flower grow
It's a time to take a stand, if you know a stand you'll fall

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

It's a motorized express, full of bolts and gears and things
It's a feather in your nest when a robin red-breast sings
It's a Mary with her lamb looking for a flower grow
It's a time to take a stand, if you know a stand you'll fall

And so it was, I found this life but a dream
And so it was, I found this love was a draw
If this is so, whatever living may seem
It can be told with some old story or rhyme

And so it was, I found this life, this love, a dream
It can be told with some old story or rhyme
