When I was a young boy
|
I was living for the moment
|
The world was wide open
|
I had every choise
|
But with so many choises
|
I just didn't know what to do now
|
All I say is just forget it
|
If you tell me I'll regret it
|
Just let it be what it is
|
Coz it's so easy to say
|
|
If I knew yesterday what I know today, where would I be tomorrow
|
I won't let my soul slide away, I'd do whatever it takes
|
Coz this time's only borrowed
|
|
I got one life, one life, one life and I'm gonna live it
|
I got one life, one life, one life and I'm gonna live it right
|
|
My daddy sat me down, he said,
|
"Son it's probably time to start making some plans"
|
And I said, "No, not right now"
|
With so many choises
|
I just didn't know what to do now
|
All I'd say is forget it when he'd tell me I'd regret it
|
|
Just let it be what it is, coz it's so easy to say.
|
If I knew yesterday what I know today, where would I be tomorrow
|
I won't let my soul slide away, I'd do whatever it takes
|
Coz this time's only borrowed
|
|
I got one life, one life, one life and I'm gonna live it
|
I got one life, one life, one life and I'm gonna live it right
|
|
You say the more you think you know what's right
|
The less you do what you feel inside
|
So I won't pretend that I always know
|
I just follow my heart wherever it goes
|
And I may not always get it right
|
But at least I'm living coz I've only got this...
|
|
One life, one life, one life, I've got this one life.
|
|
If I knew yesterday what I know today, where would I be tomorrow
|
I won't let my soul slide away, I'd do whatever it takes
|
Coz this time's only borrowed
|
|
I got one life, one life, one life and I'm gonna live it
|
I got one life, one life, one life and I'm gonna live it right
|
|
When I'm an old man, hope I'll be rocking in my chair
|
Smiling to myself
|
I'll tell my baby girl
|
"You only get one life, so make sure you live it right"
|
