Hold me like a mother would 
Like I always knew somebody should 
though tomorrow don't look that good

Well, it just goes to show 
Though people say we're an unlikely couple 
I'm seeing double of you 

Oh. 
This is life 
This is life 
And everything's all right 
Living living living living living living living living 
life 

Oh 
I'm hoping though 
because I'm learning to cope 
with the emotion-less mediocrity 
Oh. 
Day-to-day living 

I can't help being restless
When everything's so tasteless
And all the colors seem to have faded away. 

Oh. 
This is life 
This is life 
And everything's all right 
Living living living living living living living living 
life 

Hold me like a mother would 
Like I always knew somebody should, yeah. 
though tomorrow don't look that good 

Well, just goes to show 
Though people say we're an unlikely couple 
Doris Day, and Mott the Hoople 

Ohhh,.. 
Ahh... 
Life!
