Lyrics
Living Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hold me like a mother would
Like I always knew somebody should
though tomorrow don't look that good
Well, it just goes to show
Though people say we're an unlikely couple
I'm seeing double of you
Oh.
This is life
This is life
And everything's all right
Living living living living living living living living life
Oh
I'm hoping though
because I'm learning to cope
with the emotion-less mediocrity
Oh.
Day-to-day living
Oh
I can't help being restless
When everything's so tasteless
And all the colors seem to have faded away.
Oh.
This is life
This is life
And everything's all right
Living living living living living living living living life
Hold me like a mother would
Like I always knew somebody should, yeah.
though tomorrow don't look that good
Well, just goes to show
Though people say we're an unlikely couple
Doris Day, and Mott the Hoople
Ohhh,..
Ahh...
Life!
