Gently (Original Version) Lyrics
[Verse 1: Anders]
Gently, my mind escapes into the relaxing mode of pleasure
A pleasure that will take my mind off of the realities of my life
My past life. Life as I know it now
And whatever may come, it slowly disappears
To somewhere in the back of my mind
It will remain there 'til I wish to retrieve it
[Verse 2: Anders]
Yes, I will stay here for awhile, for I need the break
A break from the pressures of life
And everything that lay in the palm of life's hands
Life's hands
This mode is incredible. It's out of this world
Too bad I must always leave it
Oh, but that's life (That's life)
[Outro: Anders and Clown]
That's life (That's life)
That's life (That's life)
That's life (That's life)
