We want it all, we want it now We want life to be fair, everybody does We lose ourselves under the faces That we learn to wear, oh we just wanna be loved We’re so busy tryin’ to find wonderland We forget just what we’ve got right here in our hands
Chorus: All I know is we gotta hold on to The beautiful before it’s gone Life is a sidewalk Mona Lisa And it breaks your heart when you see her Wash away It’s all just chalk in the rain
We wanna laugh, we wanna live We’re dyin’ for peace in the worst way When will we learn to trust each other Have a little faith and not be afraid Every moment’s fleetinglike a breath in the wind The truth is we may never pass this way again
Chorus: All I know is we gotta hold on to The beautiful before it’s gone Life is a sidewalk Mona Lisa And it breaks your heart when you see her Wash away It’s all just chalk in the rain
Let’s slow down Take a good look around At what we got Before the sky opens up
Chorus: All I know is we gotta hold on to The beautiful before it’s gone Life is a sidewalk Mona Lisa And it breaks your heart when you see her Wash away It’s all just chalk in the rain It’s all just chalk in the rain
