He said: "I was in my early forties,
"With a lot of life before me,
When a moment came that stopped me on a dime.
"I spent most of the next days,
"Looking at the x-rays,
and talking 'bout the options and
talkin' 'bout
sweet time."I asked him when it sank in,
That this might really be the real end?
How's it hit ya when you get that kind of news?
"I went sky diving, I went rocky mountain
climbing,
"I went two point seven seconds on a bull
named Fu Man Chu.
"And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter,
"And I gave forgiveness I'd been de ny ing."
And he said: "Some day, I hope you get the
chance "To live like you were dy ing."
Verse 2
He said "I was finally the husband,
That most the time I wasn't.
And I became a friend a friend would like to
And all a sudden goin' fishin',
Wasn't such an imposition,
And I went three times that year I lost my Dad.
I finally read the Good Book,
And I took a good long hard look,
At what I'd do if I could do it all again,
I went sky diving, I went rocky mountain
climbing,
"I went two point seven seconds on a bull
named Fu Man Chu.
"And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter,
"And I gave forgiveness I'd been denying."
An' he said: "Some day, I hope you get the
"To live like you were dy ing.'
Like tomorrow was a gift,
And you've got e ter ni ty,
To think about what you'd do with it.
And what did you do with it?
What did I do with it
what would I do with it?
"Sky diving, I went rocky mountain climbing,
"I went two point seven seconds on a bull
named Fu Man Chu.
"And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter,
"And I watched an ea gle as it was fly ing."
And he said: "Some day, I hope you get the
chance "To live like you were dy ing."
"To live like you were dy ing."
"To live like you were dy ing." (repeat fading out)
