A child held up in the sky

But I won't live with regret

Carpe Diem is the secret

'Cause it's

Gone tomorrow, here today

I ain't gonna waste it

Ain't gonna waste it

No, it's gone tomorrow

But it's here today

I won't let it slip away

I feel the rush, it's kicking in

And I wish this night would never end, no

We're never coming back around

Like shooting stars, we're burning out

It's Gone tomorrow, here today

I ain't gonna waste it

Ain't gonna waste it

No it's gone tomorrow

But it's here today

I won't let it slip away

I wanna feel, wanna touch the light

I look around for the friends that have gone and I'm

reminded that it's all just a fantasy

But we get to choose what we wanna believe

And I wanna believe that there's something more

Another level to the dream, right through the door

But right now's for real and it's fading fast

Better live 'cause we're never gonna get it back

It's gone tomorrow, here today

I said, it's gone tomorrow but it's here today

I won't let it slip away

I won't let it slip away

I won't let it slip

I won't let it slip away
