when i was fourteen i was fallin fast

for a blue eyed girl in my homeroom class

tryin to find the courage to ask her out

was like tryin to get oil from a water spout

what she woulda said i can't say

i never did ask then she moved away

but i learned somethin'from my blue eyed girl

sink or swim you gotta give it a whirl

life's a dance you learn as you go

sometimes you lead sometimes you follow

don't worry bout what you don't know

life's a dance you learn as you go

the longer i live the more i believe

you do have to give if you wanna receive

there's a time to listen a time to talk

and you might have to crawl even after you walk

had sure things blow up in my face

seen the longshot win the race

been knocked down by the slammin door

picked myself up and came back for more

life's a dance you learn as you go

sometimes you lead sometimes you follow

don't worry bout what you don't know

life's a dance you learn as you go

life's a dance you learn as you go

sometimes you lead sometimes you follow

don't worry bout what you don't know

life's a dance you learn as you go

life's a dance you learn as you go

sometimes you lead sometimes you follow

don't worry bout what you don't know

life's a dance you learn as you go

life's a dance

life's a dance

life's a dance

take a chance on love

life's a dance

you learn as you go
