lyrics

When I start dreaming
I go a little too far
Wind up believing
I'm some kinda rockstar

And my head is in the clouds with this vanity
Won't you bring me back around to reality

I'll do the laundry
You do the dishes
I'm lucky I found me
Somebody who listens
When I share the tribulations of another day
When I'm quiet cuz I find I don't have much to say

Chorus:
There's no time for looking back, life is for living
I don't try to reconcile taking and giving
Lavish the children
With our affections
We see in their lives
Our own reflections

We are working for the good of all humanity
We're indulging one another's little fantasies

Bridge:
Light your fires while you are young
Keep you warm when you grow older
Light your fires while you are young
Your spark is hot now make it smolder
Light your fires while you are young
Keep you warm when you grow older
Light your fires while you are young
Your spark is hot now make it smolder
