Though I live on the edge time is on my side

all the doors to my life are open wide

just as long as the wheels keep on turning 'round

I will live for the groove 'til the sun goes down



living it up, living it up

I can feel it

living it up

is it a crazy notion?

living it up, living it up

I can feel it

living it up

I got forward motion



I don't wanna go to war, I don't wanna go to war

I said I know what I want and I don't wanna go war - do you follow me?

I saw a soldier standing in a bar

looked so tired he'd come so far

he said "I need to love someone, before they drop the atom bomb"



there's a girl at the back making eyes at me

and her hair long and black is a sight to see

but I get kind of scared when love's around

I just live for the groove 'til the sun goes down



living it up, living it up

I can feel it

living it up

is it a false emotion?

living it up, living it up

I can feel it

living it up

I got forward motion



so I'm a-taking you out but I'm a-faking

I'm married to the beat

but to the music I gave the heart I could have given you

still there's something 'bout the way that you move

and the way that people stare it's the shock of the new

I want my friends to see me standing next to you



the sun goes down . . .



time is on my side

I don't care what they say I'll enjoy the ride

but I get kind of scared when I turn around

so I'll stay with the groove 'til the sun goes down



living it up

living it up

I can feel it

living it up

I got forward motion



ooh - watch her dance

there must be one like her in every club in every town

but I don't mind if that the way she wants to be

there's something 'bout her that reminds me of me

she's my soulmate - we'll be together 'til the sun goes down



the sun goes down



living it up

living it up

I can feel it

living it up

I got forwand motion
