Ben Harper Lyrics

"The Will To Live" lyrics


Words and music by Ben Harper

I met a girl whose heart was on the right hand side
And upon the left an angel did reside
They told her mother that she never would survive
But she kept the rythm and is still alive
She's still alive

And we all must have
The will to live
Oh- you got to have
The will to live
Oh- the will
Oh- the will
The will to live

Then I met a man who had to walk with his hands
Born into a world he couldn't stand
Blessed with life but cursed as a man
Still he walks taller than most of us can

We all must have
The will to live
Oh- you got to have
The will to live
Oh- the will
Oh- the will
The will to live

Some are born with more and some born with less
So don't take for granted the life we've been blessed
It's hard to understand that we're only a guest
And each one of us shall be put to life's test
Oh- life's test

We all must have
The will to live
Oh- you got to have
The will to live
Oh- the will
Oh- the will
The will to live
Oh- the will
Oh- the will to live
