Life Is Too Short Lyrics

Have you ever seen the morning?
When the sun comes up the shore
And the silence teach the beauty for the sound

Have you ever set there waiting?
For the time to stand still
For all the worlds and stars
From turning around

And you run
'Cause life is too short
And you run
'Cause life is too short

Have you ever seen the glory?
When the moon is on the rise
And the dreams are close
To the ones that we love

Have you ever set there waiting?
For heaven to give a sign
So we could find the place
Where angels come from

And you run (and you run)
'Cause life is too short
And you run (and you run)
'Cause life is too short

There's a time that turns
Turn back time
But I don't see I can
It only works
If you believe in the truth

But there's a time to live
And a time to cry
But if you're by my side
I will try to catch a star
I'll try to catch a star
Just for you

And I run
'Cause life is too short
And I run (and I run)
'Cause life is too short

And I run And I run And I run And I run And I run .

Cover art for Life Is Too Short lyrics by Scorpions

A touching, poignant song about the fleeting nature of life. We are always running in our busy lives so that we never get to enjoy the beautiful moments of life, like the calm silence before sunrise, or sharing our dreams with our loved ones when the moon is rising at night, or contemplating on where the angels (in our lives) come from.

However, there are some typos in the lyrics above: Line 3 should be: And the silence makes a beautiful sound Line 4 and 16 should be: Have you ever SAT there waiting? Line 6 should be: For all the world to stop Line 12 should be: Have you ever seen the glowing?
