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 had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, if today was your last day?
Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the price is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you're never living 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 had?
And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd 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 nothing 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 had?
And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love... if today was your last day?
Ieri sera, mentre giravo i "sepolcri" insieme a mio fratello, sono stata raggiunta da una brutta notizia: un amico di famiglia è stato travolto in autostrada da un tir in corsa, e non c'è stato nulla da fare per lui!
RispondiEliminaLo avevo visto solo il giorno prima, era tranquillo...è ben vero, la morte è inevitabile, ma il guaio è che giunge quando meno te l'aspetti! Quando NON sei pronto...e come si fa ad esserlo davvero?
Il pensiero che mi turberebbe di più non sono i giorni, gli anni che perderei di questa vita, ma ciò che mi lascerei dietro di irrisolto, ciò che resterebbe inespresso: tutti i miei sogni, i pensieri, i sentimenti, belli e brutti, che non ho mai esternato alle persone cui voglio bene, o che in qualche modo hanno fatto parte della mia vita e vi han lasciato un segno...ecco, questa canzone dei Nickelback esprime bene quello che sento.
