My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift
and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned,
leave your fears behind
And try to take the
path less traveled by
That first step you take
is the longest stride
If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each
moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day
(If today was your last day)
Against the grain
should be a way of life
What's worth the prize is
always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause
there's no second try
So live like you'll never live it twice
Don't take the free
ride in your own life
If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each
moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old
friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one
you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day
If today was your last day
Would you make your mark
by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too
late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
Cause you can't rewind
a moment in this life
Let nothin' stand in your way
Cause the hands of time
are never on your side
If today was your last day
And tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each
moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old
friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one
you're dreamin' of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day
