I get this feeling every year, the first days of winter
|
Pull out that box of souvenirs, to read your old letters
|
In that stack of memories, found a note you left for me
|
It almost feels like you're still here
|
I hear your voice in every word
|
You told me to remember
|
|
Take each day and make it last
|
Cause you turn around and the future is the past
|
Here and now is all we have
|
The beginning and the end mean so little
|
What matters most is what's in the middle
|
|
Makes me smile when I look back to every summer
|
Forget your birthday and just laugh; say it's just a number
|
But Sunday afternoons, they meant so much to you
|
The simple things were golden, you found beauty in every moment
|
|
Take each day and make it last
|
Cause you turn around and the future is the past
|
Here and now is all we have
|
The beginning and the end mean so little
|
What matters most is what's in the middle
|
|
The day you're born is just a start
|
Your last breath is a question mark
|
The story of your life is in the in-between
|
|
Take each day and make it last
|
Cause you turn around and the future is the past
|
Here and now is all we have
|
The beginning and the end mean so little
|
What matters most is what's in the middle
|
What's in the middle
|

The Middle
