Nobody knows how cruel fate can be / how close together love and hate can be…

Nobody knows how cruel fate can be
How close together love and hate can be
Goodbye, just clean the slate for me
That’s life, I guess

That’s Life I Guess (Ben Sidran) (1978)

THAT’S LIFE I GUESS (Peter de Rose / Sam M. Lewis)

Recorded by : Ben Sidran; Billie Holiday; Victor Silvester & His Ballroom Orch.; Teddy Wilson.

Sometimes I wonder what’s in store for me

Your love could open heaven’s door to me

But you don’t care a straw for me

That’s life, I guess

My days and nights are stark and hard with you

My sugar kisses taste like salt to you

But why should I find fault with you?

That’s life, I guess

The world was bright when you loved me

Sweet was the touch of your lips

The world went dark when you left me

And then there came a total eclipse

Nobody knows how cruel fate can be

How close together love and hate can be Goodbye, just clean the slate for me

That’s life, I guess
