I'll never forget those words
My granddad said to me
When I was a wreck
Heart broken and 16
He said
Sometimes life can knock you
Right down on your knees
But true love
True glory
Only comes to those who bleed
We can't stop the world
From spinning way too fast
You won't find the gold
If you're digging in the past
We can't stop the sand
From falling through the hourglass
So live each day
Live each day
Like it's the last
I got over that girl and I bought an old guitar
I play it still when I can't find where to start
It still tells the stories that my granddad told to me
How true love
True glory
Only comes to those who bleed
We can't stop the world
From spinning way too fast
You won't find the gold
If you're digging in the past
We can't stop the sand
From falling through the hourglass
So live each day
Live each day
Like it's the last
When I crashed my first car
I got laid off
I couldn't pay the bills
I did things I ain't proud of
Lost my first love
I remember still
We can't stop the world
From spinning way too fast
You won't find the gold
If you're digging in the past
We can't stop the sand
From falling through the hourglass
We can't stop the world
From spinning way too fast
You won't find the gold
If you're digging in the past
We can't stop the sand
From falling through the hourglass
So live each day
Live each day
Hold on tight
Don't let it slip away
Live each day
Live each day
Like it's the last
Like it's the last
Oh
