Life in a beautiful light



Dit nummer gaat over hoe geweldig het is om muzikant te zijn. Amy McDonald legde op haar website uit hoe ze ertoe kwam dit nummer te schrijven: "Ik zag Pete Doherty's eerste optreden in Glasgow nadat hij Libertines verliet. Het was een geweldige avond - hij deed ook iets akoestisch op het aftershowfeest. Toen gingen ik en mijn vrienden terug naar iemands huis en zaten daar gewoon de gitaar door te geven en liedjes te zingen. Het was een briljante nacht. De volgende ochtend schreef ik 'This Is The Life' erover, want ik realiseerde me, dit is het leven."


Oh, the wind whistles down The cold dark street tonight And the people, they were dancing To the music vibe


And the boys chase the girls with curls in their hair While the shy tormented youth sit way over there And the songs get louder each one better than before


And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? Where you gonna sleep tonight?


So you're heading down the road in your taxi for four And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door But nobody's in and nobody's home 'til 4 So you're sitting there with nothing to do Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew And where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight?


And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? Where you gonna sleep tonight?


And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight?


And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? Where you gonna sleep tonight?
