Life’s not a rehearsal
it’s not some kind of drill
It’s for real you know… and you?
You’re standing still!

Things are going all wrong
and you don’t seem to care
you take it in your stride
but I need you to join me on this ride…to where?

We’ve been together so long
and it’s always been fun
but what goes on around us
well I’m afraid that’s me done

So please, come with me
for the last part of this trip
I’m leaving, come with me
one more time - read my lips!

Life’s not a rehearsal
it’s not some kind of drill
It’s for real you know… and you?
You’re standing still!
