Live Before You Die lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Live Before You Die lyrics I was a little boy of 9 years old The whole world in my hands Trying to toss that ball across the yard A game of catch with my old man He would always say I?m sorry Every time he had to leave And I was much too young to understand When he would say to me When you re young you always think The sun is going to shine There will come a day When you have to say hello to goodbye Sit down son come take my hand, Look me in the eye Take these words, promise me You ll live before you die I was barely seventeen summer of seventy-nine Already I was feeling like I was running out of time I had this girl we fell in love Or should I say that she had me Then one fateful night changed our lives And made a memory When you re young you always think The sun is going to shine There will come a day When you have to say hello to goodbye She laid me down she took my hand And looked me in the eye And just before she kissed me she said You got to live before we die, live before you die You learn to love to live You fight and you forgive You learn what s wrong and right You live before you die I made mistakes I caught some breaks But I got not regrets There s some things I don t remember But one thing I don t forget When you re young you always think The sun is going to shine One day you re going to have to say hello to goodbye Shout it out let someone somewhere Know that you re alive Take these words wear them well Live before you die Live before you die Hey! Live before you die You learn to love to live You fight and you forgive You face the darkest night Just live before you die song lyrics
