I rolled out of bed, grabbed a cup of caffeine this morning
Walked out the door, didn't even kiss you goodbye
Hurrying to work, a car pulled out, no warnin'
In an instant it all flashed before my eyes

And I'm gonna live the rest of my life
Like I got one day left to live
One night left to love you
Startin' right now I'm starting all over
Doin' what I should do
Should this be my last, or I've got a hundred years
From this day on I'm gonna live my life
Like I got one day left to live

What a close call
Could of been all she wrote me
Think I'll turn this car around and head back home
There's a lesson to be learned in this, it showed me
Take nothing for granted, in a second it can be all gone

And I'm gonna live the rest of my life
Like I got one day left to live
One night left to love you
Startin' right now I'm starting all over
Doin' what I should do
Should this be my last, or I've got a hundred years
From this day on I'm gonna live my life
Like I got one day left to live
But.

One night left to love you
Startin' right now I'm starting all over
Doin' what I should do
Should this be my last, or I've got a hundred years
From this day on I'm gonna live my life
Like I got one day left to live
