09美国偶像冠军Kris Allen单曲Live Like We're Dying¹

Kris Allen

Sometimes we fall down and can't get back up
We're hiding behind skin that's too tough
How come we don't say I love you enough
Till it's too late, it's not too late

Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come
We could make a feast² from these crumbs³
And we're all staring down the barrel⁴ of a gun
So if your life flashed before you,
what would you wish you would've done

[Chorus]
Yeah, gotta start
Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' it
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin'
Gotta live like we're dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
To turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‘em that we love ‘
em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying

And if you plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbyes
Should be so careful who we live out of our lives
So when we long for absolution, there'll be no one on the line

(Chorus)

Like we're dying (x4)

(Chorus)

You never know a good thing until it's gone
you never see a crash until its head on
All these people right when we're dead wrong,
You never know a good thing till it's gone

(Chorus)

Like we're dying (x4)

(Chorus)
