Life's a Dance

When I was fourteen I was falling fast
For a blue-eyed girl in my homeroom class
Tryin’to find the courage to ask her out
Was like trying to get oil from a water spout
What she would’ve said, I can’t say
I never did ask, she move away
I learned something from my blue-eyed girl
Sink or swim, you ought to give it a whirl
Life’s a dance you learn as you go Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow
Don’t worry 'bout what you don’t know
Life’s a dance you learn as you go The longer I live, the more I believe
You do have to give if you want to receive
There’s a time to listen and a time to talk
And you might have to crawl
Even after you walk
I’ve had sure things blow up in my face
Seen the longshot win the race
Been knocked down by the slamming door
Picked myself up and came back for more
Life’s a dance you learn as you go Sometimes you lead, sometime you follow
Don’t worry 'bout what you don’t know
Life’s a dance you learn as you go
