This Is the Life
miley cyrus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take the world, shake and stir
And that's what I got goin' on
I throw my cares up in the air
And I don't think they're comin' down
Yeah, I love how it feels right now

This is the life, hold on tight
And this is the dream, it's all I need
You never know where you'll find it
And I'm gonna take my time, yeah
I'm still getting it right
This is the life

Takin' in a whole new scene
And I'm swimming with a new crowd
Breakin' down the old four walls
And building them up from the ground
I love how it feels right now

This is the life, hold on tight
And this is the dream, it's all I need (Hold on)
You never know where you'll find it
And I'm gonna take my time, yeah
I'm still getting it right
This is the life

I'm gonna follow my own lead, yeah
Kick back and feel the breeze
Nothing but the blue sky
As far as I can see

This is the life, hold on tight
And this is the dream, it's all I need
You never know where you'll find it
And I'm gonna take my time, yeah
I'm still getting it right

This is the life, hold on tight (Hold on, hold on)
And this is the dream, it's all I need (Hold on)
You never know where you'll find it
And I'm gonna take my time, yeah




I'm still getting it right
This is the life
