    • 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
