  • Yeah
    (I wanna live it well)
    Yeah, yeah
    (I wanna live it well)
    Yeah

    Take the burden from my arms
    Take the anchors off my lungs
    Take me broken and make me one
    Break the silence and make it a song

    Life is short; I wanna live it well
    One life, one story to tell
    Life is short; I wanna live it well
    And you're the one I'm living for
    Awaken all my soul
    Every breath that you take is a miracle
    Life is short; I wanna live it well, yeah

    I wanna sing with all my heart a lifelong song
    Even if some notes come out right and some come out wrong
    'Cause I can't take none of that through the door
    Yeah, I'm living for more than just a funeral
    I wanna burn brighter than the dawn

    Life is short; I wanna live it well
    One life, one story to tell
    Life is short; I wanna live it well
    And you're the one I'm living for
    Awaken all my soul
    Every breath that you take is a miracle
    Life is short; I wanna live it well, yeah

    I got one life and one love
    I got one voice, but maybe that's enough
    'Cause with one heartbeat and two hands to give
    I got one shot and one life to live
    One life to live, yeah
    And every breath you take is a miracle

    Life is short; I wanna live it well
    One life, one story to tell (one love)
    Life is short; I wanna live it well
    And you're the one I'm living for (the one, yeah)
    Awaken all my soul
    Every breath that you take is a miracle
    Life is short; I wanna live it well
    And you're the one I'm living for

    (One life) One life, one love
    (One love) One life, one love
    (One voice) One voice, yeah
    (And that's enough) And that's enough, oh
    (One heartbeat, two hands to give)
    I got one shot and one life to live
    One life to live Writer/s: JONATHAN MARK FOREMAN, TIMOTHY DAVID FOREMAN
