New Life

I want to live a new life I want to live a new life I want to live a new life Is this the life for me Is this the life for me I've been praying for a new day I've been praying for a new day Could have had it any other way Is there a way for me Is there a way for me All my friends are either working at Deloitte Or still in school for G-d knows what They have two beautiful children and a cookie-cutter wife But all I want to do is sing and write I want to live a new life I want to live a new life I want to live a new life Is this the life for me Is this the life for me And my face is turning grey In a sea of chardonnay So I sent my ex a stupid little note With verses from a poem I never wrote She writes back with the lines I left out "We'll be sober by morning Go and live this life renewed You'll be sober by morning But I'll never forget you too" New life, new life New life, new life New life, new life New life, new I want to live a new life I want to live a new life I've only got one life Is this the life for me Is this the life for me Is this the life for me
