Fred Astaire Lyrics

Fred Astaire lyrics

You can call it anything you want the fact remains the same 
I never got to be your Fred Astaire 
You can lie to yourself and all your friends and pretend that you don't care 
But circumstance gets in the way  
You have so many opportunities I never had 
Don't push so hard, nothing is ever easy 
And this talent that you take for granted, it's a gift from god 
Don't pass it up, nothing is ever easy 
Are you ready to work real hard 
Are you tired it's just the start 
Listen to me son, I'll take you far 
You can call it anything you want the fact remains the same 
I never got to be your Fred Astaire 
You can lie to yourself and all your friends and pretend that you don't care 
But circumstance gets in the way 
Heel, toe, heel, toe, side to side AGAIN, gonna get it right 
Don't push so hard, nothing is ever easy 
Don't forget your please and thank you's, don't forget to smile 
Don't pass this up, nothing is ever easy 
Their pushing these children for all the wrong reasons 
So far man you're crushing down their spirits 
Suffocate, emancipate, turn their backs and walk away eventually 
Seeking, one of these paths 
You're wasting time --- I call it living 
To the world what are you giving 
You're wasting time…
