A peculiar little song in that it has no repeating chorus, but rather, 4 distinct parts. It's kind of like a little Broadway play in 4 acts.

You just never know when the sands in your hourglass are going to run out - don't waste your life procrastinating - do it today! What if you knew that today was your
last day on Earth - how would you spend it?
|
What if you received a warning
On the day you were to die
You'd just wake up somehow knowing
And begin to wonder why
Why today, and not next Thursday
There is so much you had planned
You were gonna ask that girl out
You were gonna hold her hand
And now there'e
So many things
You'll never do
Kiss her sweet lips
Or say, "I love you"
She'll never know
You'd be so true
You never spoke, so
She never knew
What if you received a message
That tonight would be your night
Would you get your house in order?
Would you make the wrong things right?
Would you do anything different?
Or would you simply wait to die?
Would you finally track that girl down?
Would you look her in the eye
And tell her:
Life's a little better
Whenever I'm near you
I want to know you better
So, let's spend the afternoon
You can tell me your life's story
And I can tell you mine
And I won't betray the ending
But I think it turns out fine
This might be your day
In the worst possible way
Say what you need to say, cuz
This might be your day
