Noah, the Whale - L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N. lyrics

Lisa likes brandy and the way
It hit's her lips
She's a rock'n'roll survivor
With pendulum hips
She's got deep brown eyes that've seen it all

Working at a nightclub that
Was called "The Avenue"
The bar men used to call her "Little Lisa
Looney Tunes" she went down on almost anyone

And from the hard time living
'til the Chelsea days
From when her hair was sweet blonde
'til the day it turned gray she said

Lifegoeson
You've got more than money and sense
My friend
You've got heart and you go in your own way
Lifegoeson
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart and you go in your own way

Some people wear their history like
A map on their face
And Joey was an artist just
Living out of case
But his best work was his letters home

Extended works of fiction
About imaginary success
When chorus girls in neon were
His closest things to friends
But to a writer, the truth is no big deal

And from the hard time living
To the sleepless nights
And the black and blue body
From the weekend fights he'd say

Lifegoeson
You've got more than money and sense
My friend
You've got heart and you go in your own way
Lifegoeson
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart and you go in your own way

On my last night on Earth
I won't look to the sky
Just breathe in the air and
Blink in the light
On my last night on Earth
I'll pay a high price
To have no regrets and be done with my life

Lifegoeson
You've got more than money and sense
My friend
You've got heart and you go in your own way
Lifegoeson
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart and you go in your own way
