about
This song was inspired by the Trayvon Martin tragedy
lyrics
Verse 1
Like a spring shower, life passes by so fast
Don’t know how long the journey will last
Whether we die young or old
It’s just a blink of an eye, truth be told
Verse 2
Together we share this time and space
It’s an opportunity we dare not waste
What a privilege to take this ride with you
And I hope you feel the same as I do
CHORUS
So let’s cherish this moment
We’re here today, gone tomorrow
Let’s not cause each other sorrow
We may be young, but we’re no fools
We live by the Golden Rule
That’s the only way we know (oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
That’s the only way we know (oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Verse 3
It makes me sad when I think about my brother
He was so young, full of love and laughter
His spirit lives on, in this we trust
Still I can’t help but to think, it could have been one of us, one of us
CHORUS
Verse 4
Let’s learn to love, and not just live
Let’s come together and try to forgive
Put a smile on your face, and a smile in your heart
What a wonderful place for us to start
CHORUS (2X)
