lyrics
"If you don't believe," she said
"In heaven after all,
If death is the end," she said,
"Then what's the point of it all?"
"'Cause there's so much death and destruction,
There's so much trouble and strife,
There's so much heartache and loneliness,
In this pointless, miserable life."
"Oh you don't understand," I said
"You just can't see;
Well the meaning of life," I said
"Is whatever you want it to be."
And I have a song to get me
Through my trouble and strife,
And there's so much wonderful laughter
In this pointless, wonderful life.
La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la.
A beautiful sunset
On a deep, rolling sea,
Spending warm summer evenings
With a good friend or three.
Lazy Saturday mornings
Chillin' without a care,
Making tea in the kitchen,
Or making love on the stairs.
And I have a song to get me
Through my trouble and strife,
And there's so much wonderful laughter
In this pointless, wonderful life.
Yes I have a song to get me
Through my trouble and strife,
And there's so much wonderful laughter
In this pointless, wonderful life.
La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la.
La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la la.
