In 2002 a "Best Of" album with La Bouche and Melanie Thornton was released in Europe and South America.
To commemorate her death, Kayo Shekoni took the place of Natascha Wright with Lane McCray to release "In Your Life" in 2003 featuring vocals of Melanie Thornton in Europe and the USA. It did well in the US, peaking at #6 in the dance billboard charts, alongside Justin Timberlake. They played various club gigs and a side show with Coolio and Jennifer Lopez. Shortly after that the record company "Logic Records" closed down and La Bouche were left to their own devices. Lane McCray has continued La Bouche with Dance-pop singer Dana Rayne. They continue to tour.

In Your Life
La Bouche Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In your life
Like sitting on a ferris wheel
Watching the world go around and around it goes
Maybe that's how lovers feel
Up and down, where it stops nobody knows
How many tears
or How many broken hearts
How much you'll take
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
Nobody knows, ole ole ole ola
Lonely heart of a little boy
Waiting for his daddy with a brand new toy
Lonely eyes of a pretty little girl
Bet
How many tears
or How many broken hearts
Just how many sorrows
How much you'll take
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
In your life
Nobody knows, ole ole ole ola
In your life
No body knows, ole ole ole ola
For god so loved the world
He gave his only begotten son
That who so ever believed in him
Shall not perish
But have everlasting life
No body knows
I know I could be in your life
Forever in your life
I know I should be by your side
Forever in your life
Cause this is what it all comes down to
In your life
This is what it all comes down to
In your life
In your life

The lyrics to La Bouche's "In Your Life" explore the universal experience of love and heartbreak. The chorus, "In your life," is repeated throughout the song, emphasizing the idea that no matter what happens, love and pain will always be a part of our lives. The first verse compares love to a ferris wheel, suggesting that it has ups and downs, and nobody knows where it will end up. The second verse introduces a story of a lonely little boy waiting for his father and a pretty girl with lonely eyes, implying that everyone experiences heartbreak and loss at some point in their lives.
The bridge of the song brings in religious imagery, with a reference to John 3:16 in the Bible, emphasizing the idea of everlasting life. This can be interpreted as either a glimmer of hope or a reminder that even in the most difficult times, there is a bigger picture to consider.
Overall, the lyrics to "In Your Life" suggest that love is something that we cannot control, but it is a crucial part of the human experience. We will all experience heartache and pain, but we must keep moving forward and never lose hope.
