Alright, here we go
♪
I can still remember being eight years old
Running through the country with my dog and a bow
Gathering a collection up of flint and bone
Good sense of direction took me far from home that day
♪
Chilling at the quarry
Prairie grass chest high
Looking for some answers
Questions in my mind
Long standing shadows
'Cause there weren't no shade
Just buzzing in the pasture there that God had laid that day
♪
Life is short
And so it goes
Remember when twenty-one seemed so grown?
Look too far back
You may turn to stone
Can't rewrite the past
To what your future holds
♪
Two nights in the desert outside Reno
I paid for a fox in a rabbit hole
A little blasian beauty and open tab
I lost eight pounds and couple grand that way
Creeping to my room as the sun came up
My love was asleep and when she woke up
The look I wore gave me all away
Coming down from the mountain
All the dreams we made
Running from the bad, I still see his face
Forced to die young
Or fight to change
Can't dwell on that
I got amazing grace
Don't get hung up on a past
That you can't replace
♪
Life is short
And so it goes
One day, we all wake up to find we're getting old
So, don't hold back
From what feeds your soul
And don't regret your past
♪
'Cause life is short
It's how it goes
Remember when twenty-one seemed so grown?
You look too far back
You might turn to stone
You can't rewrite the past
No, you can't rewrite your past
You can't rewrite the past
To what your future holds
