This Thing Called Life Lyrics - United Nations Of Sound - Richard Ashcroft

(Free me, free me) 

Oh, six strings, three chords, ah, big dreams 

(Free me, free me) 

And He don't let me down when the days of rain came 

He was there for me when I was in pain 

Yeah, I needed a call, He was the real friend 

Oh, He got the words when I'm feeling low 

He's like a skimming stone, like a rainbow 

He's my brother when I'm down, when I'm in luck 

(He is) 

He's my brother when I'm down and I'm out of luck 

(Jesus Christ) 

You know it's only love 

So let's come together 

A little redemptive pleasure, mmm, hmm

Let's do this thing called life 

Oh, let's try, oh, let's try 

Let's do this thing called life 

Hmm, let's try, ooh, let's try 

Don't have to swim with the tide 

Swim against the tide and find some hand to hold 

Find somebody to show the light 

Oh, they're out there in the matrix tonight 

Oh, man, I've seen so many pages 

Of stories that have drifted down rivers 

And the paper, yeah, gets lost 

In the sea, in the oceans, oh, Lord, I'm a giver 

Whoa, it's just a feeling 

It's just a feeling 

Let's do this thing called life 

Oh, let's try, oh, let's try 

Let's do this thing called life 

Hmm, let's try, ooh, let's try

You gotta learn to swim against the tide 

You gotta learn to drop your foolish pride 

You gotta learn to know these things, they're dust 

You gotta learn that misdeeds only rust 

You gotta learn the chains can open up 

And environment can fuck you up 

You gotta learn that drugs don't really work 

Unless you know the ones that hurt 

Oh, babe, let's do it again 

I wanna put the record on and live it again 

I wanna rewind the tape, turn off the clocks 

This is life, now undo my locks 

Let's do this thing called life 

Oh, let's try, oh, let's try 

Let's do this thing called life 

Oh, let's try, oh, let's try 

She's my brother, my mother 

My sister, my mother, my father, oh, yeah 

She's my brother, my sister 

(Free me now, free me) 

My father, my mother, oh 

(Please hear me now) 

Come on, let's do this thing called life 

Oh, let's try, oh, let's try 

Let's do this thing called life 

Oh, let's try, ooh, let's try 

Now free me, now heal me 

Now free me, now heal me 

Now free me, now heal me
