Lyrics of
Its My Life

Its a song by Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora, reflecting Jon Bon Jovis feelings about his career at the time, wanting to ensure that he was still in control of his own life. The lyrics express the desire to live life on ones own terms.

This ain't a song for the brokenhearted
No silent prayer for faith departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud

It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life, my heart is like the open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground
It's for Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
Luck, it ain't enough, you've gotta make your own breaks

It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life, my heart is like the open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

You better stand tall
When they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break
Baby, don't back down

It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life, my heart is like the open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life
