At the age of 55
I became a little wise
definitely not before my time
took a lot to realise
no one mattered more than I
tired of loving women only on the side
Chorus
Because tomorrow never comes, if today never ends
and after that it’s too late to make amends
take a good look at the cost
take note of all the things you’ve lost
don’t turn into just another face in the crowd
You have to fight for what is yours
accept yourself with all your flaws
and learn to make the best of what you got
cause when it comes to it in the end
you will find you’re your only friend
and the only one on which you can depend
Chorus
Because tomorrow never comes, if today never ends
and after that it’s too late to make amends
take a good look at the cost
take note of all the things you’ve lost
don’t turn into just another face in the crowd
So stop living others dreams
they’re not as great as they might seem
start living life if only just for you
learn the lessons that I have
show yourself to be a man
and tomorrow you’ll start reaping the reward
Chorus to fade
Because tomorrow never comes, if today never ends
and after that it’s too late to make amends
take a good look at the cost
take note of all the things you’ve lost
don’t turn into just another face in the crowd
