What It Is... Lyrics

Can't write about Paris

Can't write about Rome

Can't write about somewhere else

Can only write about home

Can't write about a girl

That I never had

But I can write something happy

When I'm feeling sad

Is that what it is

To live in this life

To go on for one more day

To push through the night

Is that what it is

Find ways to get through

To go on for one more day

When we don't want to

Can't write about loss

I've done that before

In fact maybe too many times

I don't want anymore

But I can write about tonight

And this place where I stand

If you listen for a moment

I'll tell you who I am

Is that what it is

To live in this life

To go on for one more day

To push through the night

Is that what it is

Find ways to get through

To go on for one more day

When we don't want to
