Lyrics That's What Life Is All About - Bing Crosby

My life is like an open book
And as I glance back through the pages
I see the chances I often took
Though I was never too courageous

Life's never easy all the time
The hills you climb often lead nowhere
Of ups and downs, I've had my share
That's what life is all about

I've known success, some mild acclaim
And thinking of it gives me pleasure
And I've had some stress, the scars remain
When lady luck gave me short measure

When things went wrong
I'd fake a smile but that's my style
'Cause I've been around
And having been around, I've found
That's what life is all about

It's been a joy, I can't deny
Though some may think I took things lightly
But man and boy, I looked on high
And never fail to thank Him nightly

When I look back, I can't forget
The friends I've met and the things they've done
I thank 'em all, it's been great fun
As for me, I have no doubt
That's what life is all about

That's what life is all about
