It's My Life

This ain't a song for the broken hearted
No silent prayer for the faith departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud

It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie saidI did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks

It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie saidI did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive'Cause it's my life

Better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
It's my life
And it's now or never'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie saidI did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
It's my life
And it's now or never'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)

PS: It's my life after all. I can't just block out the beautiful moments and say it is all struggle, darkness and loneliness. I have my moments. I just want to live while I am alive, I ain't going to live forever and I am going to do it my way. What is inspiring about this few years old song by Bon Jovi is simply beyond words. But you will understand when you see Jon himself behind the wheel of that Jaguar (or was it a Mercedes? - I am not much of a car person), swinging smartly to the song playing "It's my life...My heart is like an open highway...Like Frankie said I did it my way...I just want to live while I'm alive...'Cause it's my life"
