This Is Life

(álbum: The Call - 1982)

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
