How You Live

This is from a new CD I got. This is one of my favorite songs. The words speak so much to how life should be lived.

How You Live (turn Up The Music)

by Point Of Grace

Wake up to the sunlight

with your windows open

Don't hold in the rainbow

or leave things unspoken

Wear your red dress

use your good dishes

Make a big mess

and make lots of wishes

Have what you want

but want what you have

And don't spend your life looking back

Turn up the music

turn it up loud

Take a few chances

let it all out

You won't regret it

lookin' back from where you have been

Cuz it's not who you knew

and it's not what you did

It's how you live

So go to the ballgame

and go to the ballet

And go see your folks more than

just on the holidays

Kiss all your children,

dance with your wife

Tell your husband

you love him every night

Don't run from the truth

'cause you can't get away

Just face it and you'll be okay

Turn up the music

turn it up loud

Take a few chances

let it all out

You won't regret it,

lookin' back from where you have been

'Cause it's not who you knew

and it's not what you did

It's how you live

Oh wherever you are

and wherever you've been

Now is the time to begin

So give to the needy

and pray for the grieving

Even when you don't think that you can

'Cause all that you do is bound

to come back to you

So think of your fellow man

Make peace with God

and make peace with yourself

'Cause in the end there's nobody else

Turn up the music

turn it up loud

Take a few chances

let it all out

'Cause you won't regret it

Lookin' back from where you have been

'Cause it's not who you knew

and it's not what you did

It's how you live

'Cause it's not who you knew

and it's not what you did

It's how you live
