[Verse 1]
This is my life
This is my time
Just show me the light
And I go there
Give me the wine
Bitter and sweet
And a little bit of bread
That's all I need

[Chorus 1]
No, I don't want the gold from Xanadu
I think I leave it all to you
Ouh-wouh-wouh
This is my life and I don't care

[Verse 2]
This is my street (Oh-oh-oh)
Are you restless feet
Carry me on
To anywhere
Take the fear
Take it away
And give me some hope
For one more day
[Chorus 2]
I saw a ghost behind the door
When the kids were coming home from the war
Wouh-wouh-wouh
With broken dreams and nothing more
I heard a woman singing her song
And it was good and warm and strong
Ouh-wouh-wouh
She made me cry, I don't know why

[Interlude]

[Chorus 3]
Oh, as a woman singing her song
And it's good and it's warm and strong
Ouh-wouh-wouh
She makes me cry, I don't know why
No, no, no
I don't want to bring you down
I think it's good to be here
Wouh-wouh-wouh
This is my life and I don't care
