Life Is Short
[Verse 1]
They say I am a bad man, yes I know what I've done
But I'm coming from the badlands, and I'm walking in the sun
I ain't looking for redemption, no, because that you cannot give
I ain't looking for forgiveness, I'm just looking for a kiss

[Chorus]
Life is short, love me long
Right or wrong, oh, baby, I need your love
Life is short, love me long
Right or wrong, oh, baby, I need your love

[Verse 2]
You say I am a mad man, well I can't say you're wrong
You say I am a sad man, but girl I ain't that strong
You say times are a-changing, people they change, too
Yes, the world is a big place, there's too much work to paint it blue

[Chorus]
Life is short, love me long
Right or wrong, oh, baby, I need your love
Life is short, love me long
Right or wrong, oh, baby, I need your love

[Bridge]
I am a mad man
I need, I need, I need, I need, I need, I need your love
I am a sad man
I need, I need, I need, I need, I need, I need your love
I am a bad man
I need, I need, I need, I need, I need, I need your love
I am a mad man
I need, I need, I need, I need, I need, I need your love
