What did I do with it? What would I do with it? Skydiving I went Rocky Mountain climbing I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fumanchu And I loved deeper And I spoke sweeter And I watched an eagle as it was flying And he said, "Someday, I hope you get the chance To live like you were dyin'" Live like you were dyin' Live like you were dyin' Live like you were dyin' Live like you were dyin'
