John Oates And Daryl Hall - Life's Too Short Lyrics

I let you escape, slip through my fingers
We made our mistakes, but memories linger
Each time I turn a corner I swear I see your face
But I'm standing here alone in the wonder
What I really needed, what made me run away?
Was it just a crazy spell I was under?

[Chorus:]
We all love on borrowed time, tomorrow's flying blind
And Life's Too Short to be living without you

You laughed at my jokes, broke down my defenses
It's like my heart just awoke, and brought back my senses
I've got my motor runnning, it's all that I can do
Cause every road I'm taking is leading back to you

[Chorus]

I give in I can't go it alone, yeah I'm done now I know that you're gone
I need someone to save me and Life's Too Short to be living without you
