Lyrics
Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Select Start What if I were born again and my Zen Didn't kick me up a notch I won't know what to do without you So I'll just sit back and watch as Days turn into nights turn into weeks Turn into years The stars go around And they cut the ground And the lights all disappear No matter what I do, yeah it's true I long to spend another 30 lives with you Yeah I do, I'd love to spend Another 30 lives with you Ba, Ba Ba Ba, Ba Ba Ba, Ba, Ba Ba, Ba, Ba Ba, Ba, Ba... Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Select Start Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Select Start No matter what I do, yeah it's true (Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right) I long to spend another 30 lives with you (B A Select Start) Yeah I do, I'd love to spend Another 30 lives with you
