"This Is Life" lyrics
"This Is Life"
Well, I don't mean to question your motives
And I don't mean to challenge your pride
But you can't penetrate to the soul of a man
Though how hard you try
Temptation dances a ballet
Oh, it's truly a feast for the eyes
You stare like an alien into a world
Where you can't survive
Singing oh, oh, oh
My head is spinning
Around she goes
They tell me this living
They tell me this is life
Life
Damn I'm so often refused
I'm down and I'm liable to crack
I've carried this load for so long
And it broke my back
Oh, but I'll follow you down the narrowest pathway
To nothing at all
I only hope you'll be there with me
When I take my fall
Singing oh, oh, oh
My head is spinning
Around she goes
They tell me this living
Oh, what can I say?
What could I do?
Could you leave me lost and homeless?
Could you just break me in two?
(Two, too much)
I'm sorry I hurt you
I'm sorry you cried
I'd give anything in this world
To see our love alive
I might succumb to the pressure
Like a dog who howls at the moon
I'm losing it measure by measure
Somebody stop this tune
Singing oh, oh, oh
My head is spinning
Around she goes
They tell me this living
Singing oh, oh, oh
My head is spinning
Around she goes
They tell me this living
They tell me this is life

Cracker - "Teen Angst (What The World Needs Now)" I don't know what the world may need
But I'm sure as hell that it starts with me

Does she walk? Does she talk?
Does she come complete?
My homeroom homeroom angel
Always pulled me from my seat
She was pure like snowflakes
No one could ever stain
The memory of my angel...
Split Enz - "One Step Ahead" One step ahead of you
Stay in motion, keep an open mind
Love is a race won by two
Your emotion, my solitude
If I stop, I could lose my head
So I'm losing you instead
Either way I'm confused
You slow...

Close your eyes and touch what greets you there
