Holly Cole › Lyrics › Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries

Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't make it serious, life's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, when you go

Keep repeating, it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you never owned?

Life is just a bowl of cherries
So why not laugh at it all

Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't make it serious, life's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, when you go

You keep repeating, it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you never owned?

Life is just a bowl of cherries
So live and laugh at it all
