Lyrics

These Days

Deep inside I think I?m still fifteen
When someone calls me mister
I?m sure it?s my dad they mean
All these years went by just like that
Zero to fifty, in six seconds flat

Each day?s made of moments
Each moment goes on its way
I want to make the most
Each one of these days

Work hard, stay focused, you?re gonna go far
So I bought lots of stuff, a big house this guitar
I?m not saying all this stuff isn?t nice
But I?ve realized I?ve been paying full price

Each day?s made of moments
Each moment goes on its way
I want to make the most
Each one of these days

These days
Everything?s moving so fast
These days
Before we know it the future?s gone past
And I?ll find myself at the table
Watching the last grains drain through the hour glass
I want to make the most of each one of these days

I don?t know how many sunrises I?ll see
What I do with each one, that?s up to me
So to quote a smart man, nobody carves on their grave
?Wish I?d gone into the office, just one more day?

Each day?s made of moments
Each moment goes on its way
I want to make the most of
Each one of these days

These days
Everything?s moving so fast
These days
Before we know it the future?s gone past
And I?ll find myself at the table
Watching the last grains drain through the hour glass
I want to make the most of each one of these days
