La Vie Lyrics by Billy Sprague

La Vie

0

My life on the road
Oh, I love and I hate it
Sitting in airports glad and frustrated
And waiting for love to arrive
My grandmother, Myrtle
Has outlasted two husbands
All of her sisters, brothers and cousins
And wonders why she's still alive
But she smiles and will tell you
That trouble won't kill you
'Cause if it did, she would have died
Oh, la vie est dure
That much is sure
Mais Dieu est bon si bon
Through the fire and the rain
I call Him by name
And when the night is long
I remember mais Dieu est bon
Got a sister in Texas who married an outlaw
Then realized he wasn't what she thought
Now she's fine that he's doing time
My dear friend Anita came down with cancer
And I came down hard looking for answers
Under a silent dark sky
But to see her you'd wonder
How after the thunder
There's still a light in her eye
Oh, la vie est dure
That much is sure
Mais Dieu est bon si bon
Through the fire and the rain
I call Him by name
And when the night is long
I remember mais Dieu est bon
Some say tighten your grip
Keep a stiff upper lip
Life goes on, but the stoics are wrong
They know half of the story
And none of the glory
For they do not know Dieu est bon
Oh, la vie est dure
That much is sure
Mais Dieu est bon si bon
Through the fire and the rain
I call Him by name
And when the night is long
I remember
Oh, la vie est dure
That much is sure
Mais Dieu est bon si bon, si bon
Through the fire and the rain
I call Him by name
And when the night is long
I remember mais Dieu est bon
