Life gets in the way Lyrics

I came upon a past life on my way into the city

Just as I remember but now old and lass pretty

And I asked myself the question

How time has gone for her And I heard

Ooooo

Turn your life around my friend

Your wants and needs will never end

Remember what a wise man said

He said Life gets in the way

Don't get trapped by your worries son

Lighten up and have some fun

Bad things come but life goes on and

Life gets in the way

And when I turned to leave

The Guard grabbed my sleeve and he said

I'd like to believe in the hereafter

I've made all my plans and I've been a good man

Ooooo

Sometimes it seems that nothing gets better

I'm always striving and getting beat

Everything's doing but

Nothing's improving

Targets are too hard to reach

Turn your life around my friend

Your wants and needs will never end

Remember what a wise man said

He said Life gets in the way

Don't get trapped by your worries son

Lighten up and have some fun

Bad things come but life goes on and

Life gets in the way
