One Voice Children’s Choir – Live Like You Were Dying [Cover] (Mp3 & Lyrics)

Lyrics: Live Like You Were Dying by One Voice Children’s Choir

He said “I was in my early forties
With a lot of life before me
When a moment came that stopped me on a dime
I spent most of the next days
Looking at the x-rays and talkin’ ’bout the options,
And talkin’ ’bout sweet time.”
I asked him “When it sank in that this might really be the real end
How’s it hit you when you get that kind of news?
Man, what’d you do?” And he said

“I went skydiving, I went Rocky Mountain climbing,
I went two point seven seconds
On a bull named Fu Man Chu ♪
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I’ve been denying”
And he said, “Someday I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dying.”

He said ” I was a finally the husband
That most of the time I wasn’t
And I became a friend a friend would like to have
And all a sudden going fishin’
Wasn’t such an imposition. And I went three times that year I lost my dad
Well I, I finally read the Good Book and I
took a good, long, hard look at what I’d do if I could do it all again
And then

“I went skydiving, I went Rocky Mountain climbing,
I went two point seven seconds
On a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I’ve been denying”
And he said, Someday I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dying

Like tomorrow was a gift, and you’ve got eternity
To think about what you’d do with it,
What could you do with it
What did I do with it?
What did I do with it?

Skydiving, I went Rocky Mountain climbing,
I went two point seven seconds
On a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I’ve been denying”
And he said, “Someday I hope you get the chance
Oh Someday I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dying
