The Sun Goes Down (Living It Up)

Though I live on the edge, time is on my side

All the doors to my life are open wide

Just as long as the wheels keep on turning 'round

I will live for the groove 'til the sun goes down

(Living it up, living it up) I can feel it

(Living it up) Is it a crazy notion?

(Living it up, living it up) I can feel it

(Living it up) I got forward motion

I don't wanna go to war

I don't wanna go to war

I said, I know what I want

And I don't wanna go to war

Do you follow me?

I saw a soldier standing in a bar

Looked so tired, he'd come so far

He said, "I need to love someone

Before they drop the atom bomb"

There's a girl at the back making eyes at me

And her hair, long and black, is a sight to see

But I get kind of scared when love's around

I just live for the groove 'til the sun goes down

(Living it up, living it up) I can feel it

(Living it up) Is it a false emotion?

(Living it up, living it up) I can feel it

(Living it up) I got forward motion

So I'm a-taking you out, but I'm a-faking

I'm married to the beat, to the music I gave

The heart I could have given you

Still there's something 'bout the way that you move

And the way the people stare, it's the shock of the new

I want my friends to see me standing next to you

(The sun goes down)

Time is on my side

I don't care what they say, I'll enjoy the ride

But I get kind of scared when I turn around

So I'll stay with the groove 'til the sun goes down

(Living it up, living it up) I can feel it

(Living it up) I got forward motion

Ooh, watch her dance

There must be one like her in every club in every town

But I don't mind, that's the way she wants to be

There something 'bout her that reminds me of me

She's my soulmate, we'll be together 'til the sun goes down

(The sun goes down)

(Living it up, living it up) I can feel it

(Living it up) Is it a false emotion?

(Living it up, living it up) I can feel it

(Living it up) I got forward motion

(Living it up, living it up)

(The sun goes down)

(Living it up, living it up)

(The sun goes down)...
