Funny how I find myself in love with you If I could buy my reasoning I'd pay to lose One half won't do I've asked myself, how much do you Commit yourself It's my life, don't you forget It's my life, it never ends (It never ends) Funny how I blind myself, I never knew If I was sometimes played upon, afraid to lose I'd tell myself, what good you do Convince myself It's my life, don't you forget It's my life, it never ends (It never ends) I've asked myself, how much do you Commit yourself? It's my life, don't you forget Caught in the crowd, it never ends It's my life, don't you forget Caught in the crowd, it never ends It's my life, don't you forget Caught in the crowd, it never ends
