Why do I stand there smiling, like I’m afraid you’ll see me otherwise
Why do I stand there smiling, when what I really want is tears to relieve me

Why do I sit here waiting, like it’ll all fall into place
Why do I sit here waiting, is it I’m waiting or a fear of living out my heart

Chorus:
Why wait like I’m afraid to go ahead
Just live life a little, would it help to know we’re all the same

Why am I always chasing, a goal that never seems to appear
Why am I always chasing, when I can really say is today I’m living out my dreams

Chorus:
Why can’t I see my dreams when they come my way
Just live life a little, would it help to know we’re all the same

Verse + chorus (instrumental)

Chorus:
Why the smile when I’m feeling otherwise
Just live life a little, would it help to know we’re all the same
