lyrics

Sometimes it feels like I’ve been living in slow motion
Sometimes it flashes by so fast
Sometimes I feel like I’m a single drop in an ocean
And I can’t seem to make it last

You want a life
That’s gonna set you free
You better try
To put your mind at ease
Some piece of mind
Is within your reach
But everybody’s living make believe

Why why why why?

One look at you
You’re living the life
Living the high life living the high life
Ooo
You’re living the life you please
One look at you
Living the high life walking the fine line
Everybody’s living out their dream
Or so it seems

Nobody told me it would get so dark and lonely
The stormy weather soon will pass
Nobody told me you would be the one to show me
The answers in the looking glass

You want a life
That’s gonna set you free
You better try
To put your mind at ease
Some piece of mind
Is within your reach
But everybody’s living make believe

Why why why why

One look at you
You’re living the life
Living the high life living the high life
Ooo
You’re living the life you please
One look at you
Living the high life walking the fine line
Everybody’s living out their dream
Or so it seems

Are you living the life?
Or are you walking the line?
Are you living the life?
Or are you walking the line?

One look at you
You’re living the life
Living the high life living the high life
Ooo
You’re living the life you please
One look at you
Living the high life walking the fine line
Everybody’s living out their dream
Or so it seems
