Seize the Day
Am I throwing my life away?
Am I wasting the opportunities in front of me?
Shouldn’t I seize the day?
Given the chance 20 years from now, would I change it all?
The words of my friend still resonate through my head.
All this time, I’ve let myself be taken with the flow
I’ve never tried to take control
Always drifted through life at the slowest pace I could,
Never pushed myself to see how far I could go
The words he said were still far off from the best for me
I think it that they still show I need to change
Without a single risk in life, you’ve only got monotony
And that’s something I’m not ready to let slide
From one Monday month to the next
The whole thing’s spun round
From the first date and the first kiss
To the start of something new
Though I’d hoped, I never knew this moment was gonna come so soon
Now, this time, this place I won’t forget for all my days
When the stars have aligned for the start of a new page
Given this fresh taste of life, I now have the chance
To write about the upside of my time instead
Something built on solid ground, it’s something real
From the word go it all felt so right
With a clear mind I can see it through
The way I’d always wanted to
We’ll take our time and together be complete
