Lyrics

V1
Tick tock hear the clock countdown
Wish the minute hand could be rewound
So much to do and so much I need to say
Will tomorrow be too late

Feel the moment slip into the past
Like sand through an hourglass
In the madness I guess I just forget
To do all the things I said

Pre
Time passes by
Never thought I'd wind up
One step behind
Now I've made my mind up

Chorus
Today I'm gonna try a little harder
Gonna make every minute last longer
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
’Cause we don't have long, gonna make the most of it

Today I'm gonna love my enemies
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
’Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late
One day too late

V2
Tick tock hear my life pass by
I can't erase and I can't rewind
Of all the things I regret the most I do...
Wish I'd spent more time with you

Here's my chance for a new beginning
I saved the best for a better ending
And in the end I'll make it up to you, you'll see
You'll get the very best of me

Bridge
Your time is running out
You’re never gonna get it back
Make the most of every moment
Stop saving the best for last
