8 Years Lyrics - For Bitter Or Worse - Anouk

8 years just all went down the drain 

I'll make sure I make it up to you 

Try not to make the same mistakes again 

I keep my word and make it work for you 

So what I'm trying to say is 

Lay it down 

There's no way to win this life ain't always fair 

And once you learn how to play it 

You still ain't there 

Just hold your breath and watch the sun but don't get burned 

But help the ones you love and try in your own way 

To be free 

Don't worry 'bout how it all went wrong 

'Cause it won't change the past you see 

And despite all the things I know 

There's no place that I would rather be 

Just hold on 

What it all comes down to we will be just fine 

But every now and then you'll find out there's no way 

Out of this troubled state of mind I say 

Sometimes you won't understand the way they play 

But it won't break you 

(I'm gonna make you believe) 

I'm gonna make you see 

You have to love 

(I'm gonna make you believe) 

The things that life is giving you my child 

(I'm gonna make you believe) 

I'm gonna make you baby make you make you baby 

(I'm gonna make you believe) 

And I'll be here to love you 

There we go 

There's no way to win this life ain't always fair 

But ones you learn how to play it 

You still ain't there 

Just hold your breath and watch the sun but baby don't get burned 

And help the ones you love and try in your own way 

To be free
