Sing while you still can and dance every chance for even if your legs hurt you straight to the bone i promise you'll thank me someday for everyone fades or they'll burn out anyway "time" is something i dont understand (just) promise you won't look away love hard and long yeah it give it all away for someday when you're standing all alone you'll realize it couldn't be saved good fathers pass away and good mothers will too someday the problem is that entirely too late you realize you had more to say i'm sorry little girl you are awake today in a world that dreams no more i'm so sorry little girl no one fights for what's right any more no one dances or sings anymore when everyone's numb and they say it's ok oh, i'm so sorry little girl no one stands alone anymore everyone begs to be adored in a world thats build out of sand oh i'm so sorry little girl and "time" it will be the death someday they'll see the distances growing from the earth to my feet someday we'll see, yeah, distances growing from the earth to my feet
