Theory of Life

I could have died right then and there But an angel pulled my hair She said "Do all you dare and you'll be just fine" I've got my guardian angel working overtime And they kept asking, "Is it true?" "Did all of that really happen to you?" A friend can save your life and a song can do so too Michael saved me back in London, one day, I'll be saving you! I drink on the church steps like I'm some kind of saint I recall all my past lives, but last night is faint But I could not have made it so far Before running out of gas and stopping at some bar If I could stay up every night of the week I'd be dreaming the whole time, I'd never get enough sleep I know someone's gonna lend me their light With a soda and campari, I feel like Mata Hari in the night I love the trouble, I'm a secret spy I'm seeing double, got a secret life No university degree, no need in my theory of life If you don't believe in magic, you'll only see the tragic But then again, that's just a theory of mine I swear I know a thousand jokes And I swear my heart was never broke I thought we'd stay together They say nothing lasts forever I'll find out if they're right Go out and find my "nothing" for the night The kinda nothing that'll make you believe That every night is just like New Year's Eve Now you're like nothing in my life Alright, in my theory of life Gonna find myself a lover He surely loves another But then again, that's just a theory of life
