Little boy wishes he wasn't small |
|
He'd give his turtle to be six feet tall |
|
He's got photos of |
|
Shaq and Ewing up on his wall |
|
And he'd try a jump shot but he's afraid he'll down |
|
Little girl wants to fall in love |
|
Dressed like her mother in white evening gloves |
|
She pretends, tells her friends she's got somewhere to go |
|
They don't ask where so they'll never know she feels |
|
With a shorter past there's a greater hurry |
|
Let the moment last, there's no need to worry |
|
We should be living for today or tomorrow anyway |
|
And don't ask for the world on a plate 'cause you just might get it |
|
Don't ever say it's too late, you know you'll regret it because |
|
Just when you think you're sure, your life can change right before your eyes |
|
A mother's thinking of her little boy |
|
Left home at sixteen back in '84 |
|
He's got a dog named |
|
Lucy says she's all that he needs |
|
Lucy knows better she hears all his dreams |
|
When you search yourself, when you get down to it |
|
If you know yourself, you know you'll get through it |
|
So start living for today or tomorrow anyway |
|
And don't ask for the world on a plate 'cause you just might get it |
|
Don'r ever it's too late you know you'll regret it because |
|
Just when you're sure your life can change right before your eyes |
|
With a shorter past there's a greater hurry |
|
Don't grow too fast there's no need to worry |
|
Start living for today or tomorrow anyway... |
|
Just when you're sure your life can change right before your eyes |
|
Right before your eyes |
