One Life Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Feels like you're treading water
Like your dreams are fallin' overboard
Another day and the price you're payin'
Is something you can't afford
You hang onto what's familiar
Like a skin you know you've gotta shed
But don't you worry about these changes
You're gonna branch out instead

[Chorus]
'Cause you've got one life, baby
So live it with your heart and soul
Yeah, you've got one life, baby
It's time to let the good times roll
Put your mind on what's ahead
Get a fresh point of view
Don't be thinkin' that it's over
It's just the start of somеthing new

[Verse 2]
You'll be staring through the rеar-view mirror
From the time and place of no regret
So take the wheel and keep on movin'
You ain't seen nothing yet
[Chorus]
'Cause you've got one life, baby
So live it with your heart and soul
Yeah, you've got one life, baby
It's time to let the good times roll
Put your mind on what's ahead
Get a fresh point of view
Don't be thinkin' that it's over
It's just the start of something new

[Bridge]
(Just the start of something new)
Something new
(The start of something new)
Something new
(Just the start of something new) Oh, baby
(The start of something new) The start of something new

[Saxophone Solo]

[Chorus]
Oh, 'cause we've got one life, baby
So live it with your heart and soul
Yeah, you've got one life, baby
It's time to let the good times roll
Put your mind on what's ahead
Get a fresh point of view
Don't be thinkin' that it's over
It's just the start of something new

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
