lyrics

Cautious Life
(Alice Olsen)

She bought her first cigarettes at 80
Thought she might give ‘em a try
She was too short on life already
Wanted something risky before she died
She raised three kids six dogs and a husband
Now she visits his stone on the hill
Put herself last right up to the end
All that’s left now is time to kill

She always lived a cautious life
A good mother and a faithful wife
Always so responsible
Never dreaming the impossible
But times too short for another “no”
No looking back, she’s ready to go
She’s not thinking twice
Let go of her cautious life

She always wished that she could see Paris
Or take a motorcycle ride
But her dreams made her embarrassed
She gave em up too afraid to try

Repeat chorus

You know it’s never too late to turn around
Shake up life and turn it upside down
Never to late to try something new
Life’s too short and dreams are too few

Repeat chorus
