00:00Oh, the road we travel

00:30Shadows are creeping just out of sight

00:33Chasing my dreams, but they slip through my hands

00:37It ain't easy, baby, to make your own plans

00:41People keep talking, saying just hold on tight

00:47But the wind keeps howling, singing a different fight

00:51Got a heart full of rhythm, but the beat's off key

00:55It ain't easy navigating life's symphony

00:58It ain't easy, no, it's a tough, tough game

01:05Trying to rise up when the world feels the same

01:09Swing with me, darling, through the highs and the lows

01:12It ain't easy, but that's just how it goes

01:18Late nights and laughter share in our woes

01:28The city lights flicker, everybody knows

01:33We're dancing through trials, we're making a stand

01:36With the cool of the jazz, we take it in hand

01:41So here's to the dreamers, the lovers, the wise

01:47Finding our way under starry skies

01:51Lots of sweet melody, sometimes out of tune

01:55But we'll keep on playing, we'll be singing soon

01:59It ain't easy, no, it's a tough, tough game

02:04Trying to rise up when the world feels the same

02:08Swing with me, darling, through the highs and the lows

02:12It ain't easy, but that's just how it goes

02:18Through the rain and the thunder

02:44We've learned to survive with every misstep

02:48We discover our drive

02:50The saxophone wails echoes of our fight

02:54It ain't easy, darling, but we'll be all right

02:58So raise up your glass, here's to the night

03:04With a swing and a sway, everything feels right

03:07Life's a rich tapestry woven with care

03:11It ain't easy, sugar, but we're a bold pair

03:16It ain't easy, no, it's a tough, tough game

03:21Trying to rise up when the world feels the same

03:25Swing with me, darling, through the highs and the lows

03:29It ain't easy, but that's just how it goes

03:35So take a deep breath, let the music unwind

03:41With a heart full of hope and a swing in your mind

03:45It ain't easy, but that's why we sing

03:48In this modern jazz life, let freedom ring

03:53It ain't easy, it ain't easy, but that's why we sing

04:08It ain't easy, it ain't easy, but that's why we sing
