When I was fourteen
I was fallin' fast
For a blue-eyed girl
In my
Homeroom class
Tryin' to find
The courage
To ask her out
Was like tryin' to
Get oil from
A water spout
What she would've
Said I can't say
I never did ask
Then she moved away
But I learned somethin'
From a blue-eyed girl
Sink or swim
Yo. 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 receive
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 long shot
Win the race
Been knocked down
By the slammin' 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
