The Life You Lead

There's a life 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 choose
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)
