Professor Know-It-All works late
Tutoring the homecoming queen
His wife at home, she bakes a cake
He misses their ten year anniversary,
ten year anniversary
Comes home without his wedding ring
And that's life, whoah-oh, whoah-oh
And that's life, whoah-oh, whoah-oh
Miss Hollywood, she's riding high
Her career has hit stride
She has some drinks
And takes a drive
Ran a red light
She got thirty years to life
She got thirty years to life
Killed a boy riding his bike
And that's life
(Where you are and where you want to be)
Whoah-oh, whoah-oh
And that's life
(Who you are is who you'll always be)
Whoah-oh, whoah-oh
From these moments who can understand
That life changes so fast
Something happens and time fades to black
And there's no turning back
And there's no turning back
No, no
And in your heart, there is a flame
That burns bright on darker days
So trust yourself, you'll make it through
In this life, I'll always believe in you
I'll always believe in you
Promise you'll always stay true
And that's life
(Where you are and where you want to be)
Whoah-oh, whoah-oh
And that's life
(Who you are is who you'll always be)
Whoah-oh, whoah-oh
And that's life
(Where you are and where you want to be)
Whoah-oh, whoah-oh
And that's life
(Who you are is who you'll always be)
Whoah-oh, whoah-oh
And that's life
(Where you are and where you want to be)
And that's life
(Who you are is who you'll always be)
And that's life
(Where you are and where you want to be)
And that's life
(Who you are is who you'll always be)
