Live Before You Die Letra

I was a little boy of 9 years old the whole world in his hands trying to toss that ball across the yard a game of catch with my old man he would always say I'm sorry every time he had to leave I was much too young to understand when he would say to me *when you're young you always think the sun is going to shine there will come a day when you have to say Hello to Goodbye sit down son take my hand, look me in the eye take these words, promise me you'll live before you die* I was barely seventeen summer of seventy-nine already I was felling like I was running out of time I had this girl we fell in love or should I say that she had me then one fateful night changed our lives and made a memory *when you're young you always think the sun is going to shine there will come a day when you have say Hello to Goodbye she laid me down she took my hand and look me in the eye and just before she kissed me she said you got to live before you die live before you die* you learn to love to live you fight and you forgive you learn what's wrong and right you live before you die I made mistakes I caught some breaks but I got no regrets there's some things I don't remember but one thing I don't forget *when you're young you always think the sun is going to shine one day you're going to have to say Hello to Goodbye shout it out let someone somewhere know that you're alive take these words wear them well live before you die live before you die hey, live before you die* you learn to love to live you fight and you forgive you face the darkest night just live before you die
