Barclay James Harvest - The Life You Lead lyrics

there's a light that burns

when the night has come

makes me understand

you're the one i see

and i can't say no

take me, by the hand

can't believe that you want

it to be

just the game

and we're playing the parts

such a feeling

it won't let me be

like an arrow

that's straight for the heart

'cause the one you want

is the one you lose

that's what people say

and the life you lead

is the one you chose

help me on the way

tell me why

you fill up

my life this way

take me high

together

we'll fly away

can't believe that you

want it to be

just a game

and we're playing the parts

such a feeling

it won't let me be

like an arrow

that's straight for the heart

'cause the one you want

>we need someone<

is the one you lose

>help us along<

that's what people say

>too many people can't find a way<

and the life you lead

>we need someone<

is the one you choose

>to carry on<

help me on the way

>helping us on the way
