What if I told you that your time was up,
|
That as every second passes there's a moment gone,
|
And in twenty three hours the sun is gonna set, forever.
|
|
Would you hug a little tighter, would you let go first,
|
Would you focus on love and then forget the hurt,
|
Living the moment and wish your life away.
|
|
How would you spend your last night on earth,
|
Would you kiss your enemies say sorry first,
|
Would you take enough time to say your last goodbyes.
|
|
All the little battles that you never won,
|
All the music in the opera never sung,
|
Emotions that were silent all these years,
|
|
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
|
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
|
You only get one life so make it right,
|
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
|
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth,
|
Cause this is the last night on earth.
|
|
What if I told you that I had regrets,
|
I would trade in all my happiness for one last kiss,
|
For a minute or two lying by your side.
|
|
What if I chose over nobody more,
|
If I uttered only promises with empty talk,
|
If I knew back then the things that I know now.
|
|
I would tell you that I love you then we'd all get low,
|
There are peaks and there are valleys, you've got to have known,
|
A second chance, it rarely comes around.
|
|
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
|
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
|
You only get one life so make it right,
|
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
|
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth.
|
|
If I could have my time again,
|
I would make sure you knew just how I feel,
|
Somewhere I wait for much too long,
|
And the seasons change without me.
|
|
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
|
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
|
You only get one life so make it right,
|
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
|
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth,
|
As if it's the last night on earth,
|
Cause this is the last night for love.
