How long have I got
|
Before common days become legend
|
How long have I got
|
'Til this dream of life becomes heaven
|
Oh, life passed too fast
|
It's hard to know it won't last forever
|
|
How long have I got
|
Before passion gives up its fire
|
How long have I got
|
Before time strangles desire
|
Oh, my fear is to leave here
|
Never having really arrived
|
|
Who can hear my beating heart
|
Pounding so, wanting more
|
Who can hear my beating heart
|
Pounding on the door
|
|
How long have I got
|
To make mistakes and be wiser
|
How long have I got
|
To learn to be less of a liar
|
Oh, to face my best try I know
|
I need someone who is higher
|
|
How long have I got
|
To answer a higher calling
|
How long have I got
|
To walk the line without falling
|
Oh, needing meaning, wanting to know
|
Just what I'm here for
|
