21 years, she figured it out
She started a job, she’s feeling it out And for once, it feels right Was feeling like the prime of her lifeBut all of that is just a dream
Shattered now, and everything’s changed With one car and one night It’s driving through the prime of your lifeTook your freedom, there’s no reason
Just keep breathing Time doesn’t hear if you ask it to waitLa, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-dawaves
So own all your tears and just roll with the waves La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da Life, it could change, it could change in a day La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da So cherish your years and just roll with the waves La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da Time doesn’t hear, so roll with the 11 years old, my only friend
You’d taken me in, but where was I? When he took his life Oh, I was singing in the prime of my lifeWhere was I when you were calling?
I can’t go back Time doesn’t hear if you ask it to waitLa, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da
So own all your tears and just roll with the waves La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da Life, it could change, it could change in a day La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da So cherish your years and just roll with the waves La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da Time doesn’t hear, so roll with the wavesOoh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
Live in regret, or eye to the future? I’d rather be here, thinking about the now ‘Cause this breath could fade fast And this day could be your lastLa, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-dawaves La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da Time doesn’t hear, so roll with the waves
So own all your tears and just roll with the waves La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da Life, it could change, it could change in a day La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da So cherish your years and just roll with the La, da-da-da-da, la, da-da-da-da
