While I Can

If today was my last day I'd call my mom out of the blue Take the time to say the words I seldom do I'd leave my suitcase in the closet And tell the world it'll have to wait Then I'd take my little girl on an ice cream date What am I waiting for? It ain't like I'm gonna live forever I don't wanna miss it anymore So from now on it's now or never I'm gonna hold on to what matters And let the rest slip through my hands What I would do Is what I will do While I can I'd bring home baby's favourite flowers Leave my work outside the door And we'd laugh about how we both forgot What we were mad at each other for I'd let go of all my grudges Make the choice to just forgive Spend the rest of my time free From all this hate and bitterness So what am I waiting for? It ain't like I'm gonna live forever I don't wanna miss it anymore So from now on it's now or never I'm gonna hold on to what matters And let the rest slip through my hands What I would do Is what I will do While I can If today was my last day And it was almost time to go I'd pick that old bible And I'd put down my phone I'd watch the steam rise from my coffee The sunrise in the sky And I'd thank the lord for one more chance To try and get it right What am I waiting for? It ain't like I'm gonna live forever I don't wanna miss it anymore So from now on it's now or never I'm gonna hold on to what matters And let the rest slip through my hands What I would do Is what I will do While I can What I would do Is what I will do While I can
