| I used to think that it all stopped happening | 
| By the time you reached twenty one | 
| They said there’s nothing like the first love you get boy | 
| They were wrong, oh so wrong | 
| They hung on and hung on, to their dream, I know | 
| Life gets better yeah | 
| Whenever I’m in her arms | 
| Just to know I’m not the average fella | 
| I’m the one, I’m the one for her | 
| Well it’s a shame what they do to these young kids | 
| Just encourage them to act like clowns | 
| And then they think that they don’t have much longer | 
| Knocked up the first time she let em get down | 
| Put four walls around and then scream, but I know | 
| REPEAT CHORUS | 
| Life stretches before me an endless mystery | 
| And nothing can bore me, when she’s with me | 
| I feel the heartbeat of the world in the hands of this girl | 
| But it takes so much time to, to finally see, see, see | 
| I get a thrill when I think how it really is | 
| No one can ever take that away | 
| They try to put rubber bands around your heart | 
| But they’re wrong, oh so wrong, they hung on | 
| And hung on, to their dream, but I know | 
| Life gets better yeah | 
| When ever I’m in her arms | 
| Just to know I’m not the average fella | 
| I’m the one, I’m the one for her | 
| Oooh Life gets better yeah, When ever I’m in her arms | 
| Just to know I’m not the average sucker, I’m the one, I’m the one for her | 
| Oooh Life gets better yeah, Oooh Life gets better yeah | 
| Oooh Life gets better yeah |
