Though I live on the edge, time is on my side All the doors to my life are open wide Just as long as the wheels keep on turning 'round I will live for the groove till the sun goes down Livin' it up, livin' it up I can feel it Livin' it up Is it a crazy notion? Livin' it up, livin' it up I can feel it Livin' it up I got forward motion I don't wanna go to war, I don't wanna go to war I said, I know what I want and I don't wanna go war, do you follow me? I saw a soldier standing in a bar, looked so tired, he'd come so far He said "I need to love someone, before they drop the atom bomb" There's a girl at the back making eyes at me And her hair long and black is a sight to see But I get kind of scared when love's around I just live for the groove till the sun goes down Livin' it up, livin' it up I can feel it Livin' it up Is it a false emotion? Livin' it up, livin' it up I can feel it Livin' it up I got forward motion So I'm a-taking you out but I'm a-faking, I'm married to the beat To the music, I gave the heart I could have given you Still there's something 'bout the way that you move And the way that people stare, it's the shock of the new I want my friends to see me standing next to you The sun goes down Livin' it up, livin' it up I can feel it Livin' it up I got forward motion Ooh, watch her dance There must be one like her in every club in every town But I don't mind, that's the way she wants to be There's something 'bout her that reminds me of me She's my soul mate, we'll be together till the sun goes down The sun goes down Livin' it up, livin' it up I can feel it Livin' it up Is it a false emotion? Livin' it up, livin' it up I can feel it Livin' it up I got forward motion Livin' it up, livin' it up The sun goes down Livin' it up, livin' it up
