Lyrics

[Chorus]
In this life, in this life, in this life
In this, oh, sweet life
We're coming in from the cold
We're coming in, we're coming in, we're coming in
We're coming in, we're coming in, we're coming in
We're coming in, we're coming in, coming in from the cold
[Verse 1]
It's you, it's you, it's you I'm talking to
Well, you, you
It's you, it's you
You I'm talking to now
Why do you look so sad and forsaken?
When one door is closed
Don't you know another is open?
[Verse 2]
Would you let the system make you kill your brother, man?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, dread, no
Would you make the system make you kill your brother, man?
No, dread, no
Would you make the system get on top of your head again?
No, dread, no
Well, the biggest man you ever did you see was, was just a baby
[Chorus]
In this life, in this life, in this life
Oh, sweet life
Coming in from the cold
We're coming in, we're coming in, we're coming in
We're coming in
Coming in, coming in, coming in from the cold
[Chorus]
It's life, it's life, it's life, it's life, it's life, it's life, it's, whoa, whoa
Coming in from the cold
We're coming in, we're coming in, we're coming in
Coming in, coming in, coming in
Coming in from the cold
[Verse 3]
It's you, you, you I'm talking
Well, yes, you
It's you, it's you
Oh, you I'm talking to now
Girl, why do you look so, look so
Look so sad, look so sad and forsaken?
Don't you know
When one door is closed
When one door is closed
Many more is open
[Verse 4]
Well, would you let the system get on top of your head again?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, dread, no
Would you let the system make you kill your brother, man?
No, dread, no
Well, would you let the system get on top of your head again?
No, dread, no, no, no, no, no, no, well
The biggest, biggest man you ever, ever did you see was a, was a once a baby
[Chorus]
In this life, in this life, in this life
In this, oh, sweet life, we're
Coming in from the cold
We're coming in, we're coming in, we're coming in
We're coming in, we're coming in, coming in, whoa, coming in
Coming in from the cold
[Outro]
We're coming in, we're coming in, we're coming in
We're coming in
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Coming in from the cold
Coming in, coming in, coming in, coming in
Coming in, coming in, coming in from the cold
