[Verse 1]
I ran into an old friend
We shared some drinks and
Some old times gone by
Traded our war stories
Moments of glory
When I saw the fear in his eye
That's when he told me
About the company setbacks
Budgets and cutbacks
Boy, you're on your own
[Chorus]
He said, "I'm wasting my life just paying my bills
Doin' my time but getting no chills
A livin' ain't livin', not without the thrill
Of doin' something you love"
Sing a song loud or hit a ball hard
Spend the night outside under the stars
Catch one falling and you'll go far
Doing something you, something you love
[Verse 2]
I was saving for a weekend
Hoping that we might spend
A little time alone
Somewhere watching the sun drop
Yeah, that's when I pop the question
And break out the stone
And she told me
"I'll follow you wherever
And I'll never ever leave you alone"
[Chorus]
But I'm wasting my time just paying my bills
Stayin' in line but getting no chills
A livin' ain't livin', not without the thrill
Of doin' something you love (Something you love)
Dance all night 'til the moonlight's gone
Dive in the river with nothing on
Follow your dreams, you can't go wrong
Doing something you, something you love
[Bridge]
And one day when I look back
I don't wanna say that
I gave our time away
[Chorus]
Ain't gonna waste my life just paying my bills
Grinding my gears climbin' up that hill
A livin' ain't livin', not without the thrill
Of doin' something you love
Sing a song loud or hit a ball hard
Spend the night outside under the stars
Catch one falling and you'll go far
Doing something you, something you love
