Take me to the place where mountains meet
They say the stories buried there run deep
Past the canyon gorge and frozen river
We’ll wake the sacred answers from their sleep
They’ll say ‘Oh, life is short, but life is sweet’
So while we’re here, let’s feel its heat
With the wind in your eyes you carry on
Seeking shelter from the storm you wait for dawn
A notch for every kiss, for every lie
Your heart is full of notches, but what kind?
Life is short, but life is sweet
So while we’re here, let’s feel its heat
Life is short, but life is sweet
So while we’re here, let’s feel its heat
Ohhhhhhhhh
You break up my sleepless nights
A flash so blinding white
You break up my sleepless nights
A flash so blinding white
Life is short, but life is sweet
So while we’re here, let’s feel its heat
Life is short, but life is sweet
So while we’re here, let’s feel its heat
