Everyone we knew Seemed to follow you Where was this life that you had? Between this open ground I played for two And I waited all day by your side Well, all you could do was just hide This is yourself Falling away You reached for the sun Afraid of the day Quit counting your tears 'Cause where in the world And this is your life It's not just your girls And after work you are So tired but still a star So I waited all day by your side It's starting to wear on my pride Oh, so go do what you want And I won't ask why 'Cause I'm leaving all this by my side And I'm starting to wear all my pride This is yourself Falling away You reached for the sun Afraid of the day Quit counting your tears 'Cause where in the world And this is your life It's not just your girls This is your life Falling away You reached for the sun Afraid of the day Quit counting your tears 'Cause where in the world And this is your life It's not just your girls This is your life, alright This is your life, alright This is your life, alright This is your life, alright This is your life.
