What is life

[Thatsmeonthetrain]

Verse one:
Why are we here?
What do we do?
Where do we begin, and
when do we come through?

Is it the light at the end of the tunnel?
Or is it the grass on the other side?
All of these questions remain but I want to know: What is life?

Chorus: (2x's)
Is it the way the sun reflects off the sea?
Is it the touch of another human being?
Is it the change of the color in leaves?
Or is it what we long to be?

Verse two:
How do we go on?
When do we let go?
Do we just let our lives flow, and assume we will know?

Is it the light at the end of the tunnel?
Or is it the grass on the other side?
All of these questions remain but I know to know: What is life?

Chorus: (1x)
Is it the way the sun reflects off the sea?
Is it the touch of another human being?
Is it the change of the color in leaves?
Or is it what we long to be?

Bridge/third verse:
We are here because we belong.
We begin when we believe we don't.
We move on with time, and learn when to let go.

Chorus: (2x)
It is the way the sun reflects off the sea.
It is the touch of another human being.
It is the change of the color in leaves;
and what we long to be..

Great song baby!! I can't believe that you just wrote this. We need to write a song together tomorrow.

[Thatsmeonthetrain]

Thank you for the idea darling :-)
It took me what, like 5 minutes? haha
Yes we do! Lets do it!

[Teshka]

This is nice

Tbatsmeonthetrain what's your favorite music genre and what style do you have in mind for this song?

[Thatsmeonthetrain]

Indie for sure. both ways :-) acoustic mostly. I love soft mellow music.

[Frankie Jasmine]

Thatsmeonthetrain: Good choice. But I will share that I heard a bit of jazz in there too . . . Is a hint of jazz in this song at all? Of course, lyrics without music--we make up our own music sometimes (not necessarily what the author intended!)

Masterpiece!!!!!(What is Life?My answer:Love)

[Thatsmeonthetrain]

Thank you, Doug :-)

[The Obscured]

great song. beautifully written. especially for the little amount of time you seem to have put into it. Natural gift I say!

[Thatsmeonthetrain]

Thank you :-)

[OrchestraInside]

There's something I like about this one... I would leave out the bridge, let the questions "blow in the wind" rather than answer them.

[Thatsmeonthetrain]

I just felt like this song deserved to be answered xD

[amaryn]

Didn't see this Lovely Piece Of Masterminding,lol!
You're and I must admit: Ithe philosophical approach here.

The light at the end of the tunnel is what young people especially are looking for,Traingirl! Too many seem to have a very dark view on their
future,as to begin with, there's no work for far too many

[Doug Denslowe]

Thank you, Doug :-)

"Friends through thick and thin" we say in Dutch: it means: whatever happens/is being said: we won't get upset!
