live, like it's your last day

Singer:jimmy buffett

live

relive

learn to forgive

time just keeps slippin' away

live

relive

learn to forgive

live like it's your last day

cats have nine lives and eons to play

planets and stars are light years away

their cosmic clock ticks and it tocks

here in the milky way

just like a whirlpool

the universe has rules

there's no rehearsal

or cosmic reversal

you can pray or stand still

or grab one last cheap thrill

but here's all i have to say

live

like it's your last day

sing karaoke and sip some rose

this won't last forever

but if you're clever

you just might sail away

and live

like it's your last day

fuel the jet now don't delay

bucket lists are just cliche

no acts of contrition

or asking for permission

you'll have lots of options this way

live

relive

learn to forgive

time just keeps slippin' away

live

relive

learn to forgive

live like it's your last day

live

what you want

what you dream

what you might have heard

was beyond your reach

oh

live

on the water on the wind

on the move on the edge or maybe on the beach

oh

just live

for the chance or the dance

or the new romance in every single day

come on and live

for the joy or the buzz or maybe just because

i can't think of a reason not to

live

relive

learn to forgive

time just keeps slippin' away

live

relive

learn to forgive

live like it's your last day

time just keeps slipping away
