Lyrics

[00:23.430] He said I was in my early forties
[00:26.680] with a lot of life before me
[00:29.600] when a moment came that stopped me on a dime
[00:35.390] and I spent most of the next days
[00:38.700] looking at the x-rays
[00:42.40] Talking bout the options
[00:44.460] and talking bout sweet time
[00:48.710] I asked him when it sank in
[00:51.440] that this might really be the real end
[00:53.850] hows it hit you when you get that kinda news
[01:00.580] man what?d you do
[01:01.210]
[01:01.550] and he said
[01:02.360] I went sky diving
[01:05.379] I went Rocky Mountain climbing
[01:08.350] I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named BluManchu
[01:14.80] and I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
[01:20.270] and I gave forgiveness I?d been denying
[01:26.310] and he said someday I hope you get the chance
[01:30.460] to live like you were dying.
[01:35.380]
[01:44.140] He said I was finally the husband
[01:47.210] that most the time I wasn?t
[01:50.509] and I became a friend a friend would like to have
[01:56.420] and all the sudden going fishin
[01:58.950] wasn?t such an imposition
[02:02.310] and I went three times that year I lost my dad
[02:08.430] well I finally read the good book
[02:11.310] and I took a good long hard look
[02:14.290] at what I?d do if I could do it all again
[02:18.350]
[02:20.190] and then
[02:22.610] I went sky diving
[02:25.980] I went Rocky Mountain climbing
[02:28.700] I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named BluManchu
[02:35.70] and I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
[02:40.990] and I gave forgiveness I?d been denying
[02:47.79] and he said someday I hope you get the chance
[02:51.510] to live like you were dying.
[02:55.290]
[02:56.300] Like tomorrow was a gift and you got eternity to think about
[03:01.830] what?d you do with it what did you do with it
[03:07.790] what did I do with it
[03:10.320] what would I do with it?
[03:12.500]
[03:14.230] Sky diving
[03:16.500] I went Rocky Mountain climbing
[03:19.440] I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named BluManchu
[03:25.600] and then I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
[03:31.370] and I watched an eagle as it was flying
[03:40.790] and he said someday I hope you get the chance
[03:46.250] to live like you were dying.
[03:51.480] To live like you were dying
[03:57.390] To live like you were dying
[04:03.360] To live like you were dying
[04:09.370] To live like you were dying
[04:22.630]
[04:23.530] end
