|
I woke up to a dream passing by |
|
It was the middle of the night |
|
Was I awake? |
|
Was I asleep? |
|
What was I doing outside? |
|
I saw a man walk from the trees |
|
He came and sat next to me |
|
And he said, "Boy, if you don't follow your dreamsYou'll be dead someday just like me" |
|
Then he got up and walked away |
|
And I started to think |
|
He turned around, |
|
I saw his face |
|
And I looked deep in his eyes |
|
And I realized that man was me |
|
You're not for this world |
|
This world is for you and now is the time(There's no tomorrow) |
|
So make the most of every day |
|
While you're alive(Stand for something) |
|
I contemplate my every day |
|
And everything |
|
I've been afraid to change |
|
Never good enough, promptly too late |
|
Always excuses away |
|
I used to think if |
|
I never tried |
|
I would never fail |
|
Now I realize |
|
I can do anything |
|
You're not for this world |
|
This world is for you and now is the time(There's no tomorrow) |
|
So make the most of every day |
|
While you're alive(Stand for something) |
|
Too little, too late and then you die |
|
And no one even knows your name |
|
Don't let your light fight from your heart |
|
Your heart gives you the best advice, believe, believe |
|
You're not for this world |
|
This world is for you and now is the time(There's no tomorrow) |
|
So make the most of every day |
|
While you're alive(Stand for something) |
|
For what you believe |
|
For what you believe |
