The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time
Any fool can do it
There ain't nothing to it
Nobody knows how we got to the top of the hill (mm-mm)
But since we're on our way down
We might as well enjoy the ride

The secret of love is in opening up your heart (ooh, open up your heart)
It's okay to feel afraid
But don't let that stand in your way, no longer
'Cause anyone knows that love is the only road
And since we're only here for a while
Might as well show some style

Give us a smile now
Isn't it a lovely ride? (Lovely ride)
Sliding down, and just gliding down
Try not to try too hard
It's just a lovely ride

Now the thing about time is that time isn't really real (time isn't really real, no)
It's just your point of view (tell me)
How does it feel for you? (How does it feel for you?)
Einstein said he could never understand it all (ooh)
Planets a-spinning through space
The smile upon your face

Welcome to the human race
Some kind of lovely ride (some kind of lovely ride)
I'll go sliding down, I'll be gliding down
Try not to try too hard
It's just a lovely ride
Isn't it a lovely ride? (It's just a lovely ride)
Sliding down, gliding down
Try not to try too hard
It's just a lovely ride

The secret of life (the secret of life is) is enjoying the passage of time
