When I was a young boy
I was living for
the moment the world
was wide open I..
had every choice
With so many choices
I just didn't know
what to do now
All I'd say is forget it
when you tell me
I'll regret it
let it be what it is
'cause it's so easy to say
If I knew yesterday
what I know today
where would
I be tomorrow
Won't let my soul
slide away
do whatever it takes
'cause this time's
only borrowed I got
One life, one life, one life
and I'm gonna live it
I got one life, one life
one life and I'm
gonna live it right
My daddy sat me down
he said "Son it's probably
time to start making
some plans" I said
"No, not right now"
With so many choices
I just didn't know
what to do now
All I'd say is forget it
when you tell me
I'll regret it
let it be what it is
'cause it's so easy to say
If I knew yesterday
what I know today
where would
I be tomorrow
Won't let my soul
slide away
do whatever it takes
'cause this time's
only borrowed I got
One life, one life, one life
and I'm gonna live it
I got one life, one life
one life and I'm gonna
live it right
They say the more
you think you know
what's right the less
you do what
you feel inside
So I won't pretend
that I always know
I just follow my heart
wherever it goes
And I may not always
get it right
at least I'm living
'cause I only got this
one life
One life
I got this one life
Hmmm ooh if I knew
yesterday what I know
today where would
I be tomorrow
I won't let my soul
slide away
I'll do whatever it takes
'cause this time's
only borrowed I got
One life, one life, one life
and I'm gonna live it
I got one life, one life
one life and I'm gonna
live it right
One life, one life, one life
and I'm gonna live it
I got one life, one life
One life, one life, one life
and I'm gonna live it
I got one life, one life
When I'm an old man
hope I'll be rocking
in my chair
smiling to myself
I'll tell my baby girl
"You only get one life
so make sure
you live it right"
