Whatever time I have
I don't intend to waste
For every day I live can never be replaced
Whatever time I have
I will grab with both hands
I want my heart to beat as loud as big brass bands
Whatever time I have
I won't spend being bored
The dreams I put on hold can finally be restored
So raise the curtain up
I'm standing centre stage
There is no law that says you have to act your age
One thing's clear
When all is said and done
No one's ever lived more lives than one
And it may be late
But I feel I've just begun
So let the show begin and then my friend you'll see
Whatever time I have
Will be enough for me
I'm going to live my life
The way it's meant to be
So let the music play and in a major key
Don't care how old I am
Inside I'm 23
And I will live each day
‘Til someone buries me
My husband would approve
In fact, he told me so
He said enjoy yourself
If I'm the first to go
Don't cling to memories
And crying is taboo
Don't think about the past
Tomorrow is calling you
One thing's clear
When all is said and done
No one's ever lived more lives than one
And it may be late
But I feel I've just begun
So let the show begin and then my friend you'll see
Whatever time I have
Will be enough for me
So let the music play and in a major key
I won't give up the fight
No I won't go to (seed?)
Whatever time I have
Don't care if it's a little or a lot
Whatever time I've got
Will be all I need…
