This Is Life - The Call

Well I don’t mean to question your motives

And I don’t mean to challenge your pride

But you can’t penetrate to the soul of a man

Though how hard you try

Temptation dances a ballet

Oh it’s truly a feast for the eyes

You stare like an alien into a world

Where you can’t survive

Singing oh, oh, oh

My head is spinning

Around she goes

They tell me this living

They tell me this is life

Life

Damn I’m so often refused

I’m down and I’m liable to crack

I’ve carried this load for so long

And it broke my back

Oh but I’ll follow you down the narrowest pathway

To nothing at all

I only hope you’ll be there with me

When I take my fall

Singing oh, oh, oh

My head is spinning

Around she goes

They tell me this living

Oh what can I say?

What could I do?

Could you leave me lost and homeless?

Could you just break me in two?

(Two, too much)

I’m sorry I hurt you

I’m sorry you cried

I’d give anything in this world

To see our love alive

I might succumb to the pressure

Like a dog who howls at the moon

I’m losing it measure by measure

Somebody stop this tune

Singing oh, oh, oh

My head is spinning

Around she goes

They tell me this living

Singing oh, oh, oh

My head is spinning

Around she goes

They tell me this living

They tell me this is life
