Verse 1
When I was a boy, I sold a lie, sold it to you
And all
I wanted to say "I wish you were here, I wish it would rain" now
I'm hearing alarms, ring in my ears, I'm caught in the sound now,
The one thing I know, I couldn't recall, till I heard you say…

Bridge
Put on your brakes, Lord if I could just get through today
Put on your brakes, sorry but I just can't walk away

Chorus
Yeah – this is your life,
Don't you cry, cos it's all-right
As we dance, for the last time

Verse 2
Sat on the road, Watching the cars, Sink in the reservoirs I know
It's just like you said when all of the world is spinning inside your head
And now
If I could run the miracle mile, I'd run as the city's burning down
The one thing I know, I couldn't recall, till I heard you say…

Bridge
Put on your brakes, Lord if I could just get through today
Put on your brakes, sorry but I just can't walk away

Chorus and outro
Yeah – this is your life,
Don't you cry, cos it's all-right
As we dance, for the last time, yeah
Come on come on say it!
Yeah – this is your life,
Don't you cry, cos it's all-right
As we dance, for the last time, yeah
You know, you know, yeah!
Yeah – this is your life,
Don't you cry, cos it's all-right
As we dance, for the last time, yeah
(Fade out)
