The first time we laid down was so tender And the next night I remember kept her high heels on... So excited, I invited her to stay a while Just as long as she promised to keep that red dress on... How was I to know she was only fooling around... 'cos I was only 17, just trying to keep my hands clean Did'nt know what love could mean, I was living life... On the radio they played that song called 'Layla' And she turned it up as she came across the room to me... And I held her close like she was made of angel gla** Never realised that what we had could never last... How was I to know she was only fooling around... 'cos I was only 17, just trying to keep my hands clean Did'nt know what love could mean, I was living life... I was only trying to be good, it was misunderstood Just living like a boy should... I was living life... I was living life, oh it does'nt seem so long ago That I was living life, it amazes me how time can pa** you by... When you living life, how was I to know she was only fooling around... Just fooling around... Na, na, na... living life... Chorus... Living life…
