Cross a windy bridge one winter night Past Embankment Gardens enter warmth and light Face the music it's never easy Forget the chill Face the future it's never easy Find the will If life is worth living it's got to be done One might be forgiven for thinking it's a life on the run Many roads will cross through many lives but somehow you survive Look around Picture what's in store Is this the final edit or is the subject now a bore Don't shrug your shoulders it's always easy You can't ignore That life is worth living it's still worth a damn One might be forgiven for thinking it's something of a sham Many words may make it sound contrived but somehow we're alive The survivors Our heads bowed The survivors At memorials for other faces in the crowd Teachers and artists it's never easy and Saturday girls in suits or sequins it's never easy or twinsets and pearls If life is worth living If life is worth living it's got to be run it's got to be run as a means of giving as a means of giving not as a race to be won not to be won Many roads will run through many lives but somehow we'll arrive Many roads will run through many lives but somewhere we'll survive
