Written by Nick Scotti and Freddy Bastone

You say that you know yourself
You told me that you'd try
I say that's impossible
'Cause you never looked inside
You're stuck on past do-me-wrongs
Listening to feel-bad-for-me-songs

CHORUS:
Life is what you make it
Your life, no need to cry
Life is what you make it
Your life, it's for the taking
It's for the taking

You live to be someone else
You live to be free
You look inside the mirror
Not liking what you see
We all have our problems now and then
But a little love is all we need

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Don't you worry baby
The sun is gonna shine
Things will surely work out
If you only take the time
There'll be love, it won't hurt to try it
There'll be peace, and that means no more cryin'
There'll be happiness, and you'll feel good inside

You're stuck on past do-me-wrongs
Listen to the message in my song

CHORUS (X2)
