[Verse 1]
I woke up today with a smile on my face
I was done with tears I realized live’s no race
then it hit me, life was perfect
It was a feeling I’ll never replace
[Prechorus]
All the time I wasted with sorrow
life is beautiful and Is waiting for me
now there’s hope for tomorrow
[Verse 2]
why had I wasted my time for so long
all that I time I had thought that something was wrong
then I dried my eyes and I saw
I had everything all along
[Repeat prechorus]
[Chorus]
life goes by so fast, I wanna appreciate it while it lasts
I opened my eyes it was all in front of me
I’m everything I want to be
I’ve got everything I’ve ever dreamed
and being happy is everything it seems
[Verse 3]
who knew that I could wake up and feel so free
now I know there’s no other place I’d rather be
life is the best thing
that has ever happened to me
[Repeat prechorus]
[Repeat chorus]
[Modified chorus]
life goes by so fast, I wanna appreciate it while it lasts
I opened my eyes it was all in front of me
I’m everything I want to be
how could I have ever looked for anything else
all I ever needed was myself
I’ve got everything I’ve ever dreamed
and being happy is everything it seems
