And into this life we're born 
C                 C7
Baby, sometimes, sometimes we don't know why

In the twinkling of an eye

Let's enjoy it while we can
Help me share my load
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road

And into this life we're born
Baby, sometimes we don't know why
And the scenes they go by so fast
In the twinkling of an eye
Let's enjoy it while we can
And help me sing my song
Little darling come along
To the bright side of the road
From the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road
Little darling come with me
To the bright side of the road
On the dark end of the street
To the bright side of the road
We'll be lovers once again
On the bright side of the road
We'll be lovers once again
On the bright side of the road
