歌詞

If we only get one life

Why don’t we do what we like?

Stay out late

Change our minds

Take the long way home tonight

If we only get one shot

Why spend it being what we’re not?

I don’t know where this goes

But I know—

I wanna go

Everybody’s got advice

“Play it safe, don’t roll the dice”

Get a job, save your money

Maybe someday you’ll be happy

Funny thing about “someday”

It keeps moving anyway

I’ve been waiting for a sign

Maybe wasting all this time

What if we’re eighty-something

Talking ’bout tonight?

Would we say, “Thank God we did it”

Or “Man, we should’ve tried”?

So—

If we only get one life

Why don’t we do what we like?

Miss that train

Book that flight

Kiss somebody we might like

If we only get one shot

Why spend it being what we’re not?

Let ’em talk

Let ’em stare

We won’t be here forever anyway

If we only get one life—

I wanna like mine

Maybe I’ll regret a few

Stupid things I’m gonna do

Call you up at 2AM

Quit something and start again

Maybe I’ll get something wrong

Maybe that’s what living’s for

Rather have a messy story

Than a perfect life that bored me

What if there’s no right way?

No finish line?

Maybe being happy

Isn’t wasting time

So—

If we only get one life

Why don’t we do what we like?

Miss that train

Book that flight

Kiss somebody we might like

If we only get one shot

Why spend it being what we’re not?

Let ’em talk

Let ’em stare

We won’t be here forever anyway

If we only get one life—

I wanna like mine

I don’t wanna wake up

Twenty years from now

With everything I wanted

Still somewhere in the clouds

Maybe we look stupid

Maybe we’re alright

But if this is the only one—

I’m not wasting mine

If we only get one life

Why don’t we do what we like?

Say too much

Love too hard

Drive until we see the stars

If we only get one shot

Let’s give it everything we got

Let ’em talk

Let ’em stare

We won’t be here forever anyway

If we only get one life—

I wanna like mine

One life

Make it one you like
