Beat Of Life

My affection is the focus of it all

Beat of life

Beat of life

Beat of life

Did you know that I felt you move apart?

She says to me

"Do you know that I've felt you move apart?"

Then I say

"Imagination is a silly game we play"

And then I stare into her eyes

Think and stop to realize

That this is more than she could hope to know

And she said

She says

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

She says

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

(Beat of life)

I call her house

I get an answer on the damned machine again

She's out too late

And not a call to tell me where she'll be tonight

And then I start to think and realize

The way she acts is only parts

Of a violent game we have to play

I fear

She says

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

(Do you dance?)

She says

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

(Do you dance?)

(Beat of life)

She says

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

(Do you dance?)

Here we go

My affection is the focus of it all

I say to her

"Why can't you see that we evade the fall?"

She says to me

That her affection is the focus of it all

And then I take her in my arms

And it seems to go away

The sickening feeling that I always cultivate

When she says

She says

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

(Do you dance?)

She says

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

(Do you dance?)

She says

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

(Do you dance?)

She says

"Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?"

(Do you dance?)

She says

She says

Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?

Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?

Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?

Do you dance, do you dance to the beat of life?

(Do you dance?)
