Life is just, life is keen
I put in work, do my thing
To keep me merrily on the scene
Keep me merrily on the scene

Make me wise, take me far
Says the mind unto the heart
Keep me merrily on the scene
Keep me merrily on the scene

In life’s confines I try
In life’s confines I try to let my soul refine

But never mind how fast you go
We all shine then burn over
Like the stars in the night
So cast a dream and watch it glide

To keep you merrily on the scene
Keep you merrily on the scene

'Cause in life’s confines
We’ve got to let our souls refine

And if this light should burn out
May we carry on child
Gently down the stream

In life’s confines I try
In life’s confines I try to let my soul refine

'Til you break down
Do what the lovers do
'Til you can't go on a long way
Let it grow happy
Do what lovers do
Let it grow
