Let's Live

Why torture yourself,
When you know you're in love
Throw your pride in the ocean
And be happy beneath the stars above

Confess your feelings to the one's you love
And let's live, before it's too late
Let's live

Why deprive yourself,
Of the wonders of life
Time is getting shorter,
There's no reason for those lonely nights

If you don't, if you don't love me,
You'll miss the boat
And let's live, before it's too late
Let's live

Why should you live
In a sad state of mind
Problems, problems,
Problems all the time

Do your best to get them
Off your chest
Everything, everything
Will be just fine

Love is nice, love is
Sometimes cruel
When you've been in love you have been
To the greatest school
So try and make an "A" honey,

And I'll do the same
Let's live, before it's too late
Let's live, before it's too late
You know, I know,

Before it's too late
So, come on, come on, come on
Let's live
