Song Do or Die
Artist Peter Cincotti
Album Metropolis

Lyrics

It's just another ordinary Monday
And once again I'm running late
Why does it seem like I'm always rushing
To get to work when it's a job I hate
But I'm guessing that today I'm lucky
Thank god I didn't take the stairs
‘Cause the elevator door just opened
And you're standing there
You walk in
And the world just stops
I've got fifteen seconds
Three floors tops
I gotta make my move
Might only get one shot
It's do or die
For you and I
Can't let you pass me by
Without knowing if we'll ever get together
Don't know how
You get my heart to beat so damn loud
But it's do or die right now
And soon this moment will be gone forever
Gone forever
I need a topic of conversation
Something a little more than "Hi,
How you doin'? Let me get your number"
Don't wanna be that guy
And I don't wanna end up saying nothing
Couldn't live with that regret
But here I am planning our honeymoon
And I haven't even met you yet
Wasted words
Inside my head
Won't bring me nothing
If they're left unsaid
Gotta take this chance
‘Cause it may never come again
It's do or die
For you and I
Can't let you pass me by
Without knowing if we'll ever get together
Don't know how
You get my heart to beat so damn loud
But it's do or die right now
And soon this moment will be gone forever
Gone forever
Don't want to always wonder
Don't want to always wish
Don't want to bite my tongue
And stay inside my head like this
I want to know tried
Even if I don't know how
‘Cause it's worth a shot
Even if you shoot me down
It's do or die
For you and I
Can't let you pass me by
Without knowing if we'll ever get together
Don't know how
You get my heart to beat so damn loud
But it's do or die right now
And soon this moment will be gone forever
Gone forever
