You taught me how to ride a bike
Tie my shoes and fly a kite
How to swim and how to fish
To see a star and make a wish

Said it's okay to make mistakes
Just don't get stuck in yesterday
Forgive, forget and move ahead
'Cause life is what you make of it

Now you're gone and all I have
Are memories I hold dear
But if I'm quiet I hear your voice
Still ringing in my ears

Saying live with no excuses, love with no regrets
Laugh a lot and leave this life with nothing left unsaid
And make this world a better place, don't be afraid to cry
And when it's finally time to say goodbye
There's nothing to prove, nothing to lose, nothing to hide

You said life cannot be measured by
The place you live, the car you drive
The thing that counts the day you die
Is who you are and what's inside

So tell the truth, don't ever lie
Integrity at any price
Your words your bond, your highest price
So guard it close and live your life

So many things I learned from you
'Bout life and love and play
But I learned more by how you lived
Than what I heard you say

Live with no excuses, love with no regrets
Laugh a lot and leave this life with nothing left unsaid
And make this world a better place, don't be afraid to cry
And when it's finally time to say goodbye
There's nothing to prove, nothing to lose, nothing to hide

I only wanna live my life
Half as well as you
To leave behind what I receive
Is all I wanna do

So I live with no excuses and I love with no regrets
I laugh a lot and I leave this life with nothing left unsaid
And make this world a better place, don't be afraid to cry
And when it's finally time to say goodbye
When it's finally time to say goodbye
When it's finally time to say goodbye
There's nothing to prove, nothing to lose, nothing to hide
