well
i left for work in a hurry. i rushed out the door without sayin' goodbye. i didn't tell her i loved her this mornin'
but i'll tell her tonight
i thought to myself. an' as i hurried off t'wards the highway
this truck
outta nowhere
caught me by surprise. he missed me by inches
an' my life passed in front of my eyes. i guess that's the reason that they say: dance every dance an' live each day
as though it's your last
an' tell those that you love how you feel
before it's too late. life is right here and now
we only go around just one time. so embrace 'em
don't waste 'em
for these are the days of our lives. well as soon as my legs stopped a-shakin'
took a deep breathe an' turned my car around. oh
i'm gonna take that vacation
that we talked about
startin' right now. although i know tomorrow will be here
tomorrow may not always be here for me. 'cause nothin' in life is for certain but death's guaranteed. and that's the reason that i say: dance every dance an' live each day
as though it's your last
an' tell those that you love how you feel
before it's too late. life is right here and now
we only go around just one time. so embrace 'em
don't waste 'em
for these are the days of our lives. yeah
life is right here and now
we only go around just one time. so embrace 'em
don't waste 'em
for these are the days of our lives. oh
embrace 'em
don't waste 'em
for these are the days of our lives. yeah
