This is the Life

Artist: Matt Monro

Album: The Best of Slowfox Music

Song Length: 2:46

George's Thoughts: Lots of energy and power make this song come to life on the dance floor. Delicious sway to the music makes it work well at any level including beginners. A popular choice at competitions because the lyrics fit so well with the tail suit and ballgown environment.

Song Lyrics:

This is the life, here's where the livin' is
This is the life, baby you're there
This is the life, you've waited long enough
Girl you've arrived, breathe in that air
Wine and perfume, silver and candlelight
Children make way, I'm here to stay
Nothing but class, that's how it's gonna be
This is the life for me
House at the beach, dinners at '21'
Head waiters smile when you walk in
Hand-tailored suits, shirts with your monogram
Feel of real silk next to your skin
Top of the heap, first cabin all the way
How sweet the song when you belong
Nothing but class, that's how it's gonna be
This is the life for me
This is the life '
This is the life '
This is the life 'This is the life, here's where the livin' is
This is the life, baby you're there
This is the life, you've waited long enough
Girl you've arrived, breathe in that air
Wine and perfume, silver and candlelight
Children make way, I'm here to stay
Nothing but class, that's how it's gonna be
This is the life for me
House at the beach, dinners at '21'
Head waiters smile when you walk in
Hand-tailored suits, shirts with your monogram
Feel of real silk next to your skin
Top of the heap, first cabin all the way
How sweet the song when you belong
Nothing but class, that's how it's gonna be
This is the life for me
This is the life '
This is the life '
This is the life '
