Spent a lifetime building ladders to the stars Musta tripped and lost my balance between Jupiter and Mars Met a friendly meteor beside the moon Said to "be yourself and watch the stars come down to you" But I can't wait for the next time I gotta get up and go I gotta use it when it feels right Or else I'm never gonna know I can't live forever These bones don't stand a chance Time is a thief that comes to steal away our dreams Sometimes objects in our minds may appear closer than they seem Back and forth just like a train upon a track Better slow down, running too fast could give you a heart attack I wanna listen to the music I wanna get up and dance What's a choice, if you don't make it? Every minute is a chance I can't live forever These bones don't stand a chance I can't live forever These bones don't stand a chance I can't live forever I'm gonna live each day like it's my last chance I can't live for I can't live for ever I can't live for I can't live for I can't live for ever And all my life I have held it in my mind When all my life, I could have held it in my hands, oh All this time, I have waited for a sign This is the final time No more waiting, it's mine I can't live forever These bones don't stand a chance I can't live forever These bones don't stand a chance I can't live forever These bones don't stand a chance I can't live forever I'm gonna live each day like it's my last chance I can't live forever I can't live forever I can't live for I can't live forever I wanna listen to the music I wanna get up and dance
