This Is The Life
Amy MacDonald · Love Love: Uk & European Tour 2010 [2011]
The cold dark street tonight
And the people they were dancing
To the music vibe
And the boys chase the girls, with curls in their hair
While the shy tormented youth sit way over there
And the songs get louder each one better than before
And you're singing the song thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
where you gonna go, where you gonna go
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you're singing the song thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go, where you gonna go
Where you gonna sleep tonight ? Where you gonna sleep tonight ?
So you're heading down the road in your taxi for four
And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door
But nobody's in and nobody's home till four
So you're sitting there with nothing to do
Talking about Robert Ragger and his motley crew
And where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you singing the song thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Oh where you gonna go, where you gonna go
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you singing the song thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go, where you gonna go
Where you gonna sleep tonight ? Where you gonna sleep tonight
And you singing the song thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Oh where you gonna go, where you gonna go
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you singing the song thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
where you gonna go, where you gonna go
Where you gonna sleep tonight ? Where you gonna sleep tonight ?
