Life will break you, that's a fact
No one can save you from that
Living alone won't protect you either
For solitude will break you with its yearning
For life
And life will break you
You have to love
You have to feel
There is a reason why you came to be here
You're here to love
You're here to feel
That is the reason why you came to be here
You've got to let life swallow you whole
And let life break you
You've got to let life swallow you whole
And let life take you in
You've got to let life swallow you whole
And let life break you
You've got to let life swallow you whole
And let life take you in
You're here to love
You're here to feel
That is the reason why you came to be here
You're here to love
You're here to feel
That is the reason why you came to be here
So when life comes to break you
And when you're lost or hurt or feeling afraid
Or betrayed in any way
Or if death comes and touches your shoulder
Remember
Go sit next to an apple tree
And listen
To all of the apples falling to the ground
Wasting all of their sweetness
Tell yourself
That you tasted as many as you could
Yes, you tasted as many as you could
You're here to love
You're here to feel
That is the reason why you came to be here
You're here to love
You're here to feel
That is the reason why you came to be here
You're here to love
You're here to feel
That is the reason why you came to be here
You're here to love
You're here to feel
That is the reason why you came to be here
That is the reason why you came to be here
That is the reason why you came to be here
