[Mandy]
I'm not one to back down
But I know what it's like to fall
Gotta a lotta get up and fight now
But i hit my knees when i got that call

Do you know what it's like
To look your demons in the eye
Do you know what it's like
To tell your beautiful wife

That the man that she loves
The fabric of her life
Is breakin' down

But i don't ask "why me?"
I just say "why not?"
Take all that i've been given
Turn it into livin'
For somebody else

Coz i know that
I'm loved
I can say that it's enough
To try to learn
To give love in return
To everyone you meet
Yeah say "life is sweet"

[Chris]
There's a right and a wrong way
There's a cost for every goal
There's a light down the hallway
In that bedroom sleeps the most precious soul

Do you know what it's like
To watch your sleeping child
Feel her heart beneath your hands
Like a hummingbird wild

And though you do all you can
To go the extra mile
To watch her grow

You don't ask "why me?"
You just say "why not?"
Take all that i've been given
And turn it into livin'
For somebody else

Coz i know that
I'm loved
I can say that it's enough
To try to learn
To give love in return
To everyone we meet
And I say life is sweet

[Mandy]
There are monsters that hide in the darkness
When we are alone

[Chris]
Ooo but we follow the light

[Both]
Every best way we
Find our way home

I don't ask "why me?"
(why me)
I just ask "why not?"
(why not)
Taken all that I've been given
(given)
And turn it into livin'
(livin')
For somebody else
(somebody else)

Coz i know that i'm loved
(i'm loved)
I can say that it's enough
I try my best to learn
(to learn)
To give love in return
To everyone we meet

Yeah, say "life is sweet"
(life is sweet)

Life is sweet
Life is sweet
Life is sweet
