Hold me like a mother would
Like I've always known somebody should, yeah
Although tomorrow don't look that good
Well it just goes to show
Though people say we're an unlikely couple
I'm seeing double of you

Oh,
This is life
When everything's all right
Living living living living living living living life

Oh, hope for the hopeless
I'm learning to cope, with the emotionless mediocrity o-oh
Of day to day living
How can I help but be restless when
Everything seems so tasteless
And all the colours seem to have faded away

Oh,
This is life
When everything's all right
Living living living living living living living life

Hold me like a mother would
Like I've always known somebody should, yeah
Although tomorrow don't look that good
Well it just goes to show
Though people say we're an unlikely couple
Doris Day and Mott the Hoople

Oh,
This is life
When everything's all right
Living living living living living living living life
