Lyrics

It’s been written on pages and stone
But it’s just words until it hits home
Life is shorter than you think
And the truth is another day is never guaranteed

You’re born and suddenly you’re sixteen
The next morning you wake up at 53
Those one-day someday plans you had
They never came to life you say you never had the chance

CHORUS:
Everybody’s time is gonna come
That’s the one thing we can all count on
I don’t know when it will be but when it’s my time to leave
I wanna die with memories, not dreams

I don’t know how much time I have left
But I know I don’t want to have any regrets
Work and bills and income taxes, life fills up with these distractions
Before you know it you’re looking back and wondering what happened

CHORUS:
Everybody’s time is gonna come
That’s the one thing we can all count on
I don’t know when it will be but when it’s my time to leave
I wanna die with memories, not dreams

BRIDGE:
I’m gonna take that trip, and call that friend,
Tell the ones I love, I love ‘em again.
Do all things I always said
And maybe a few I didn’t yet
