We Live (Superchick)

Lyrics:
There's a cross on the side of the road
Where a mother lost her son
How could she know that the morning he left
Would be the last time she'd trade with him for a little more time
(so she could say she loved him one last time)
And hold him tight
But with life we never know when we're coming up to the end of the road
So what do we do then
With tragedy around the bend

We live, we love, we forgive and never give up
Cuz the days we are given are gifts from above
And today we remember to live and to love
We live, we love, we forgive and never give up
Cuz the days we are given are gifts from above
And today we remember to live and to love

There's a man who waits for the tests to
See if the cancer had spread yet
And now he asks why did I wait to live 'til it was time to die
If I could have the time back, how I'd live
Life is such a gift
So how does the story end?
Well, this is your story and it all depends
So don't let it become true
Get out and do what we were meant to do

We live, we love, we forgive and never give up
Cuz the days we are given are gifts from above
And today we remember to live and to love
We live, we love, we forgive and never give up
Cuz the days we are given are gifts from above
And today we remember to live and to love

Waking up to another dark morning
People are mourning
The weather in life outside is storming
But what would it take for the clouds to break
For us to realize each day
Is a gift somehow, someway
And get our heads up out of this darkness
And spark this new mindset and start on with life cuz it ain't gone yet
And tragedy's a reminder to take off the blinders and wake up
(to live the life)
We're supposed to take up
(moving forward)
With all our heads up
Cuz life is worth living

We live, we love, we forgive and never give up
Cuz the days we are given are gifts from above
And today we remember to live and to love
We live, we love, we forgive and never give up
Cuz the days we are given are gifts from above
And today we remember to live and to love

This is one of my Favorite Superchic(k) songs!! Well done, your signing is beautiful and fluid, true both to ASL and to the song! This is a great band- you should do more of their songs, but please be sure to give them credit!

[ASLJess]

You are right! This is the only interpretation that I didn't include who wrote/sang it. I didn't want it to interfere with the story. I will add it in the title.

[ASLJess]

Oh MAN!! My sign for "give-up" looks like I'm surrendering to God....not meant that way!!! Live and Learn!It's stinks to realize mistakes, but it only makes us stronger, right? Thanks, Danae

[ASLJess]

Hi there, not sure I understand your question. But I tried to take each verse and tell the story in ASL,and as if I were telling you the story through a series of images. The Chorus is English though.
