Old woman doing nothing thinking about her life
And where she went wrong
And how it passed her by
Old woman doing nothing thinking about her dreams
And how it always seemed they were right next door.

She never got a chance to dance the way she wanted to,
She never got her time to fly.

Live for the moment,
Dream for tonight,
Don't take it for granted,
Or this life will pass you by.

Little lady young and jaded thinking about the road that lies ahead from now.
And where it's going to lead her.
Little lady young and jaded gonna get married to mr. right, mr. right.

But when she's walking down the aisle,
She'll think about the fact she never got her chance to dance,
She never got to fly.

Live for the moment,
Dream for tonight,
Don't take it for granted,
Or this life will pass you by.

Another day is coming,
Another day is going,
Another life is wasted
Another heart is broken
And every day keeps coming,
Every day keeps going,
Never let them waste away,
L let your heart be broken.

Little baby pretty baby brought into the world today,
She listens as the doctors say.
Little baby pretty baby she don't know about the troubles of the world,
She's just one little girl.

But maybe one day she can dance the way her mama always wanted to.
She'll finally get to fly .

Live for the moment,
Dream for tonight,
Don't take it for granted,
Or this life will pass you by.

Little lady pretty baby older woman little girl.
