Lyrics
Life?s Too Short
Another birthday, another year gone by,
As I get older, time seems to fly
I live each day, like it is my last
Don?t worry bout the future, don?t dwell on the past
Often wonder bout friends came and went
They pass right through like busboys in a restaurant
Be happy or sad, take the highs with the lows
Give what I?ve got, can?t take it with me when I go because ?
Life?s too short, don?t let it pass you by
Got to live every minute, till the day that you die
Life?s too short, no time to waste
Just time for love, not time to hate
Everyday the choice is our own
To be happy or sad, to laugh or to moan
Make your destiny, make love don?t make war
Take this precious time until there is no more because ?
Life?s too short, don?t let it pass you by
Got to live every minute, till the day that you die
Life?s too short, no time to waste
Just time for love, not time to hate
Don?t know what you?ve got, till it?s gone
Cherish every minute, till there?s none
Show the world a smile, show the love in your heart
Then tell the one you love, ?you love her?, then give her that smile
Another birthday, another year gone by,
As I get older, time seems to fly
I live each day, like it is my last
Don?t worry bout the future, don?t dwell on the past
Life?s too short, don?t let it pass you by
Got to live every minute, till the day that you die
Life?s too short, no time to waste
Just time for love, not time to hate
