Songtexte Life's Too Short - Daryl Hall & John Oates

Ooh-ooh
Oh, yeah
Hmm, hmm-hmm
Hmm-hmm-hmm

I let you escape
Slip through my fingers
We made our mistakes, oh
But memories linger

Each time I turn a corner
I swear I see your face
But I'm standing here alone
In the wonder
What I really needed?
What made me run away?
Was it just somebody's spell
I was under?

We all love on borrowed time
Tomorrow's flying blind
And life's too short
To be living without you

(Life's too short) oh-oh, living, yeah
(Life's too short) hmm-hmm

You laughed at my jokes
Broke down my defenses
My heart just awoke, hmm
And brought back my senses

I've got my motor running
It's all that I can do
'Cause every road I'm taking
Is leading back to you

We all love on borrowed time
Tomorrow's flying blind
And life's too short
To be living without you

(Life's too short) oh-oh
(Life's too short) hmm-hmm
Hmm, hmm

I give in, I can't go it alone
Oh, yeah, I'm done, now I know that you're gone
I need someone to save me
Life's too short, hmm, too short

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
I give in, I can't go it alone
(Life's too short) to be living without you
(Life's too short) I give in (oh-oh), I can't go it alone (oh-oh-oh)
(Life's too short) can't be living without you
(Life's too short) I give in, I can't go it alone (oh-whoa)
(Life's too short) I can't live without you
(Life's too short) I give in, I can't go it alone
(Life's too short) to be living without you, you
