lyrics

What would you say
When you look back on today
25 years from now?
Would you say that you gave your best to each day?
The best that you knew how?
Or would you say that you lived
Your life full of waste
That you could have done more
With what you had
That if you’re not spending
Your time doing good
Then what you are doing
Is bad?

All the pieces have to fit
Holy Jesus is this it?

What would you say
When you look back on today
25 years from now?
Would you have some regrets
About the abuse that you did
To the thing that gets you around?
Or would you have no regrets
Because life is for living
And living is all about fun?
Would you think of those years
When you’re leaving too soon
And saying goodbye to loved ones?

What would you say
When you look back on today
25 years from now?
Whatever you say
Would it be with a smile
Or would it be with a furrowed brow?
I know that I don’t want
My life in the past
To be smeared by a shadow of doubt
The man that can go with peace to the grave
Surely knew what this life
Was about
