Lyrics

Seasons of Law

to "Seasons of Love" from Rent

161,800 dollars 161,000 dollars of debt 161,800 dollars How do you measure three years we regret? In case books, in outlines In late nights, in cups of coffee In bad dates, bad grades In future ex-wives 161,800 dollars How do you measure three years of our lives? Taught us no law Taught us no law Taught us no law We learned no law Ain't that a flaw? 161,800 dollars A crushing burden of debt to fulfill 161,800 dollars An extra three thousand hours to bill In cases she read Or in statutes construed In beers that he drank Or the bars she "reviewed" It's time now to think 'bout How to pay back our debts We'll graduate then go slave away For the banks that lend In corporate law In corporate law In corporate law Stuck in their claws Columbia! Columbia!

525,600 minutes 525,000 moments so dear 525,600 minutes How do you measure, measure a year? In daylights, in sunsets In midnights, in cups of coffee In inches, in miles In laughter, in strife 525,600 minutes How do you measure a year in the life? How about love? How about love? How about love? Measure in love Seasons of love 525,600 minutes 525,000 journeys to plan 525,600 minutes How can you measure the life of a woman or man? In truths that she learned Or in times that he cried In bridges he burned Or the way that she died It's time now to sing out Though the story never ends Let's celebrate, remember a year In the life of friends Remember the love! Remember the love! Remember the love! Measure in love Seasons of love! Seasons of love!
