lyrics

Fear sits alone by the window, 
dreaming of days gone by,
like “Where did my life go?”
And gone are the days of first dates, 
gone are the days of Prom.
Gone Gone Gone. 
She would give anything to jump out of her bed 
and run screaming for the hills.
I thought she had it made, 
thought she was okay. 
I thought we had it made,
oh when will I ever learn? 
And she said, “Years go by, they go faster everyday,
don’t go wasting your time
on ‘this and that and this’. 
Spend your days in the shade – soak it up! 
Ride your bicycle round the town,
do it while you still can. 
Drive with the windows down,
while you still can, while you can.” 
Sittin’ pretty with a fraction of herself left,
too bad the tears were all she kept.
Body shaking, scared to death, 
of saying no or saying yes. 
And for a woman who climbed trees 
and swayed with the breeze,
a diagnosis of a bad knee feels like death, it seems.
“96 sure was a good year,
I loved with all I had,
gave without fear.
I guess if my time has come,
I’ll meet it with grace.
Just take me outside,
I want to feel the sun on my face”. (chorus)
You’ve got to love with all your might, 
Love the one that thrills you.
You’ve got to try to do what’s right,
even if it kills you.
All in all I’d say, It’s been a pretty good day. 
All in all I say “Don’t got wasting your time.”
