When I was fourteen I was falling fast For a blue eyed girl in my homeroom class Trying to find the courage to ask her out Was like trying to get oil from a waterspout What she would have said I can't say I never did ask and she moved away But I learned something from my blue eyed girl Sink or swim you gotta give it a whirl Life's a dance you learn as you go Sometimes you lead sometimes you follow Don't worry about 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 wanna recieve There's a time to listen a time to talk And you might have to crawl even after you walk 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 sometimes you follow Don't worry about what you don't know Life's a dance you learn as you go Life's a dance you learn as you go Sometimes you lead sometimes you follow Don't worry about what you don't know Life's a dance you learn as you go Life's a dance you learn as you go Sometimes you lead sometimes you follow Don't worry about what you don't know Life's a dance you learn as you go Life's a dance Life's a dance Life's a dance Take a chance on love Life's a dance You learn as you go
