I used to think I was a bigshot
|
Thought I had it all but guess what
|
Can't measure life by the things you got
|
In the end it all ends up to nothing
|
|
I swear I missed so many birthdays
|
Valentines, hallowe'ens and anniversaries
|
Left me lonesome in the worst ways
|
But mister I learned something
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
You can't buy back the moments that matter
|
You can't buy back the moments that matter
|
There's a big pot of gold at the top of the ladder
|
But you can't buy back the moments that matter
|
|
Gonna play some football in the backyard
|
Teach my nephew how to play the guitar
|
Call up some old friends and play some cards
|
Waste a few Saturday evenings
|
|
Gonna take my wife out dancing
|
Every now and then without her asking
|
Spin her around singing and laughing
|
There's memories we should be making
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
All this talk about the good life
|
Makes me realize I got a great life
|
Gotta keep my priorities in sight
|
You just get one time around
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
You can't buy back the moments that matter
|
You can't buy back the moments that matter
|
Years pass you buy and the days start to scatter
|
But you can't buy back the moments that matter
|
