Life

Rolling in and out of love

You're spilling ink on the pure white dove

You had a dream for how it'd be

And it was not this

Slowly turn and look behind

Your water never turned to wine

The third pitch came across the plate

And you missed

Breathing in and breathing out

She came into this world about

Thirty hours after you began

You had him for fifteen years

But you blame his actions on his peers

And the songs of a rock and roll band

And I said, yeah, this is your life

Yeah, this is your life

You turned and went down the wrong damn road

But you went on just to see where you'd go

The dancing lessons are getting complicated

Tried to end, but you tried too hard

Tried to run, but you went too far

Gotten further if you'd sat and waited

And I said, yeah, this is your life

Yeah, you only go around once, so get it right

Yeah, this is your life

Here's to the moon

Here's to the last song

I'm not saying it's wonderful

Because I just don't know

Rolling in and out of love

You're spilling ink on the pure white dove

You had a dream for how it'd be

And it was not this

And I said, yeah, this is your life

Yeah, you only go around once, so get it right

Yeah, this is your life

Yeah

(I'm just a dancing doll)

Yeah, this is your life

(I'm just a dancing doll)

Yeah, you only go around once, so get it right

(I'm just a dancing doll)

Yeah, this is your life

(I'm just a dancing doll)
