Some say that life's an illusion
Who knows what's false or what's true
The distant horizon
Can be quiet surprisin'
When finally the journey is through
With all of its glories,
And all of its faults,
It seems life is a bittersweet waltz
Some say the grass is much greener
Once you get over the fence
If that's your objective,
Beware of perspective,
Conclusions don't always make sense
With all of its glories,
And all of its faults,
It seems life is a bittersweet waltz
You never know what you're holding
Til it starts slipping away
Your best protection
Is show some affection
To those who are with you today
With all of its glories,
And all of its faults,
It seems life is a bittersweet waltz
With all of its glories,
And all of its faults,
It seems life is a bittersweet waltz
