They say the best in life is never free,   So we just watch it from the sidelines then get up and leave   But looking back on how we used to live   I begin to wonder if we ever really did   But I don’t mind, I’m just waiting to draw the line   Feel no pain, in this circle go round again   And climb up on the roof-tops,    It’s a roller coaster game      So, run for cover, here comes the thunder   The skies have opened but we can’t decide   So just run for cover, don’t stop and wonder   If we’ll be waiting on the other side   When all we’re left with is a photograph to remember   On just another rainy day      We watch the clock but we’re always out of time,   The traffic’s slow, so far to go, it’s just another sign   We’re making promises we’ll never keep   And we don’t even look for answers we can take defeat   But it’s just fine, I’m alright with a compromise   Feel no shame, out of our hands now we’re not to blame   Let’s climb up on the roof-tops   It’s a roller coaster game
