[Verse 1] 
Ever since I was young (Coming up, coming up) 
Always marching to a drum (Bra-da-dum, Bra-da-dum) 
Always focused on me (One one, one one) 
Now I wish that I could hold someone (Someone) 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1] 
So tell my mom, I love her 
Call my baby sister 
Should've hugged and kissed her 
'Cause life is just a mystery 
And it's gone before you know it 
So if you love me, won't you show it? 
[Chorus] 
'Cause this life is one big symphony 
This night is one for you and me 
I'm the strings and you're the timpani 
You're my constant tambourine 
This life is one big symphony 
So glad I've got you next to mе 
I'm the chords and you're the mеlody 
This life's one big symphony 
 
[Post-Chorus] 
She was the piano 
I'm the xylophone 
You can have the trumpet 
I'm the saxophone 
 
[Verse 2] 
Life is skipping rope (Keep going, keep going) 
Finding solace in a note (Dote dote, dote dote) 
Had to struggle when I was broke (So low, so low) 
Writing music just to cope (No hope, no hope) 
 
[Pre-Chorus 2] 
Yeah, life is just perspective 
Laughing when you've wrecked it 
Smiling when you kept it together 
You weathered the storm 
At the end of the play, you sang all the way 
Doesn't matter how off-key if you did it your way 
 
[Chorus] 
This life is one big symphony 
This night is one for you and me 
I'm the strings and you're the timpani 
You're my constant tambourine 
This life is one big symphony 
So glad I've got you next to me 
I'm the chords and you're the melody 
This life's one big symphony 
 
[Bridge] 
Would you care if I played you the flute? 
See, it's my favorite one because it's so delicate and beautiful 
I pull out the trombone if it's more suitable 
Wanna make you smile 
It's been a little while since I've seen the white of your teeth 
Been a hard year 
Lucky the guitar's here 
 
[Guitar Solo] 
 
[Chorus] 
Life is just one big symphony 
This life is one big symphony 
This night is one for you and me 
I'm the strings and you're the timpani 
You're my constant tambourine 
This life is one big symphony 
So glad I've got you next to me 
I'm the chords and you're the melody 
This life's one big symphony
