Imagine Dragons
Symphony (Inner City Youth Orchestra of Los Angeles Version)
[Intro]
Hey, hey, hey, you're ready to go?
Alright, let's do it
[Verse 1]
Ever since I was young
Coming up, coming up
Always marching to a drum
Bra-da-dum, Bra-da-dum
Always focused on me
One, one, one, one
Now I wish that I could hold someone, someone
[Pre-Chorus]
So tell my mom, I love her, tell my baby sister
Should've hugged and kissed her
'Cause life is just a mystery qnd it's gone before you know it
So if you love me, won't you show it, hmm?
[Chorus]
'Cause this life is one big symphony
This night is one for you and me
I'm the strings and you're thе timpani
You're my constant tambourine
This life is onе big symphony
So glad I've got you next to me
I'm the chords and you're the melody
This life's one big symphony
[Post-Chorus]
She was the piano, I'm the xylophone
You can have the trumpet, I'm the saxophone
[Verse 2]
Life is skipping rope
Keep going, keep going
Finding solace in a note
Dote, dote, dote, dote
Had to struggle when I was broke
So low, so low
Writing music just to cope
No hope, no hope
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, life is just perspective
Laughing when you've wrecked it
Smiling when you kept it together
You weathered the storm at the end of the play
You sang all the way
Doesn't matter how off-key if you did it your way
[Chorus]
This life is one big symphony
This night is one for you and me
I'm the strings and you're the timpani
You're my constant tambourine
This life is one big symphony
So glad I've got you next to me
I'm the chords and you're the melody
This life's one big symphony
[Bridge]
Would you care if I played you the flute?
See, it's my favorite one because it's so delicate and beautiful
I pull out the trombone if it's more suitable
Wanna make you smile
It's been a little while
Since I've seen the white of your teeth, been a hard year
Lucky the guitar's here
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Chorus]
Life is just one big symphony
This life is one big symphony
This night is one for you and me
I'm the strings and you're the timpani
You're my constant tambourine
This life is one big symphony
So glad I've got you next to me
I'm the chords and you're the melody
This life's one big symphony
[Outro]
