Life's Too Short
Embracing Life's Breaths
Lyrics
Woo
Expressing excitement or enthusiasm.
How you doing?
A casual greeting, checking on someone's well-being.
You know
Acknowledging a shared understanding.
Life is too short
Life is short, implying the limited time available.
To worry about
Emphasizing the insignificance of worrying.
All these things
Suggesting that concerns should not dominate thoughts.
Let me tell you
Introducing a perspective on life's brevity.
Well I was feeling so very blue
Describing a state of sadness or melancholy.
I couldn't see a way out
Feeling trapped with no apparent solution.
I was hoping for something, babe
Expressing a desire for positive change.
To come and part my grey clouds, oh-ooh
Seeking something to uplift the mood.
But life's too short, oh
A realization that time is limited.
To sit and wait around, woo
Discouraging passive waiting for change.

-Ah-ah-ah
-Ooh
-Well I was scared of what's to come
Being fearful of the future and haunted by the past.
And what had been before
Reflecting on past experiences.
That silence played so very loud
Highlighting the impact of silence on one's thoughts.
Until I opened my door, ooh
Discovering clarity or resolution by opening up.
'Cause life's too short
Emphasizing the importance of expressing love.
To not let your love out, woo
Encouraging the open expression of affection.

-Ah
-Ba-doo-ba-doo-ba-doo-doo-doo
-Ah-ah-ah
-Ooh
-Well I would think about my health
Realizing the freedom and vitality of youth.
Think that I'm days from my death
-Realize I'm young and free
-And that it's gone to my head
-Now listen
Stating a realization about the brevity of life.
Life's too short, ooh
Advising against wasting time on trivial matters.
To spending it tripping out, woo
Discouraging overthinking or unnecessary concerns.

-Before that we fell in love
Recalling a time before falling in love.
I was afraid to tell you, girl
Feeling hesitant to express romantic feelings.
Now I think about all the things
Contemplating sharing personal experiences.
I would love to tell the world, ooh
Expressing a desire to share emotions with the world.
'Cause life's too short, ah
Recognizing the transformative power of love.
And your love has made me strong, woo
Attributing strength and positivity to love.
