V1
Every breath we take is closer to our last
Every second fades to moments of the past
Don’t let life slip away and watch the wind
Blow all the pages over
We may not have much longer
CHORUS
Start living like you only have today
Make a difference in a life that comes your way
We’ve gotta stop pretending doing nothing is okay
And start living like we only have today
We only have today
V2
She just walked passed me her husband just walked out
He filled my coffee his life is filled with doubt
Another simple opportunity to be
What God has called me to be
And now it’s up to me
CHORUS 2
To start living like I only have today
To Make a difference in a life that comes my way
I’ve gotta stop pretending doing nothing is okay
And start living like I only have today
We only have today
BRIDGE
When the curtain closes on your life
It’s not gonna matter what you drive
Or where you live, or how popular you are
People all around us need a friend
We’ve got to look outside this box we’re in
And see a world that needs the love of Christ
