"That's Life" lyrics

That's life

You're on the farm while I'm countin' my sheep
You're starin' at me while I'm trying to slee-ee-ee-ee-eep
I see the waves ripple all on the sheets
You're swimmin' to me and I think I'm in de-ee-ee-ee-eep

That's life, that's life, that's life
Why would a girl like you
Wanna be my wife?
That's life, that's life, that's life
Why would I be alright
When I could be like Mike?

I feel the magic on the tip of my tongue
I'm thinkin' of you and I think I'm in lo-oo-oo-oo-ooove
Are we in our prime? Are we ahead of our time?
You stare at the sun and you're gonna go bli-ii-ii-ii-iiind

That's life, that's life, that's life
Why would a girl like you
Wanna be my wife?
That's life, that's life, that's life
Why would I be alright
When I could be like Mike?

John Lennon's already gone
So you gotta go 'n forget it
Don't regret it, no
John Lennon's already gone
So you gotta hold on
Hold on, hold on

That's life, that's life, that's life
Why would a girl like you
Wanna be my wife?
That's life, that's life, that's life
Why would I be alright
When I could be like Mike?
