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 would've said, I can't say I never did ask then she moved away 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 long-shot 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
