starting again

baby cries, opens his eyes today.
the world he finds is already passing by.
and each new day he quickly changes.

learns to read,
goes to prom,
marries young,
has a son.
and each new year
he wonders how it's already here.

there's no telling if or when
there's a chance to start again
and please don't tell me how
we should have lived yesterday now.
day by day
life slips away.

so live each day with no regrets
because today is all we'll ever get
and time flies fast
and you can't relive your past.

there's no telling if or when
there's a chance to start again.
and please don't tell me how
we should have lived yesterday now.
day by day
life slips away
can we change?

open up your hands
and give
up all your plans
just live.
cause we can always choose
which path we want to go.
there's nothing left to lose
so...

there's a chance to start again
but please don't tell me how
we should have lived yesterday now.
day by day
life slips away
but we can change
today.
