Lyrics : This Is My Life

This is my life

I spend my days in vain just waiting
For happiness to come my way
I overlooked what I've been given
I opened my eyes, finally I realized

This is my life
I don't wanna change a thing
This is my life
All the pain, all the joy it brings

All through the years
The blood, sweat and tears
Hopes and my fears
All that was meant to be
This is my life
What will be, will be

I realize that all my heartaches
Mmm… were a blessing in disguise
Oh, if I never made a single mistake
Oh, I wouldn't be here, part of the plan, I believe

This is my life
I don't wanna change a thing
This is my life
All the pain, all the joy it brings

All through the years
The blood, sweat and tears
Hopes and my fears
All that was meant to be
This is my life
What will be, will be

I found the key to let myself free
It feels so good, 'cause I have the power to change my ways

This is my life
I don't wanna change a thing
This is my life
All the pain, all the joy it brings

All through the years
The blood, sweat and tears
Hopes and my fears
All that was meant to be
This is my life
What will be, will be

This is my life
