Who knows where or why, but life just passed him by
And forgot to tell him where it went
And all those loving arms he used to occupy
Ain't been around here ever since.
He's seen the strong survive, the winners take the spoils
And felt the nice guys finish last
He's hoped and prayed that somehow he would have his day
And watched the years go flying past
He's much too old for a good time
He's much too young to take that fall
He's much too sure he'll find that life ain't worth the climb
But is he really living at all?
All those plans he made were seldom worth a dime
He's never known just where to start
And through those college days he exercised his mind
But forgot to take along his heart
He's much too old for a good time
He's much too young to take that fall
He's much too sure he'll find that life ain't worth the climb
But is he really living at all?
Now all you're hopes and dreams are ripe upon the vine
If you wear your heart upon your sleeve
Just take life aside and look him in the eye
He'll give you exactly what you need
Because your never too old for a good time
You can't be afraid to take that fall
You just might come to find that life ain't such a climb
And that it's worth living
Don't you feel like living
Yeah life's worth living after all
