We're born wild and free
  And everything seems to make sense
  But the trouble starts
  As soon as man tries to make amends
  
  From times of hardship to times of bliss
  We ponder over the same old questions
  Until we understand life is...
  
  A way that twists and turns
  The fire that always burns
  It's the riddle no one solves
  Around which the world revolves
  
  It's an endless walk uphill
  Until fear submits to will
  It's our plans gone out of hand
  A wild flight across the land
  
  It's a rapid journey
  And wherever it may lead
  We're all just passengers
  That don't know who's in the driver's seat
  
  From times of hardship to times of bliss
  We ponder over the same old questions
  Until we understand life is...
  
  A way that twists and turns
  The fire that always burns
  It's the riddle no one solves
  Around which the world revolves
  
  It's an endless walk uphill
  Until fear submits to will
  It's our plans gone out of hand
  A wild flight across the land
  
  I read all those good books, that claim to hold the key
  But at last they all just made no sense to me
  Behind walls of science, moral, faith or spirituality
  No matter where you hide life catches up with you eventually
  
  It's the twinkle in her eye
  A train that passed you by
  It's the love you left behind
  And the sense you could not find
  
  A system overload
  A path that leads abroad
  It's a chance you did not use
  The hand that you refused
  
  A way that twists and turns...
