What if I told you that your time was up? That as every second passes there's a moment gone In twenty three hours the sun was gonna set forever Would you hug a little tighter? Would you let go first? Would you focus on love and then forget the hurt? Live in the moment or wish your life away? How would you spend your last night on earth? Would you kiss your enemies, say sorry first? Would you take enough time to say your last goodbyes? All the little battles that you never won All the music and the opera never sung Emotions that were silent all these years You can't smell the roses when you're gone You can't smell the roses No it's not a rehearsal You only get one life to make it right You can't smell the roses when you're gone So live every moment Like it's the last night on earth 'Cause this is the last night on earth What if I told you that I had regrets? I would trade in all my happiness for one last kiss For a minute or two lying by your side What if I chose the road nobody walked? If I honored all my promises with empty talk? If I knew back then the things that I know now? I would tell you that I love you, that we all get low There are peaks and there are valleys, you've got to know That a second chance, it rarely comes around You can't smell the roses when you're gone You can't smell the roses No it's not a rehearsal You only get one life to make it right You can't smell the roses when you're gone So live every moment Like it's the last night on earth If I could have my time again I would make sure you knew just how I felt Because I went away for much too long And the seasons changed without me You can't smell the roses when you're gone You can't smell the roses No it's not a rehearsal You only get one life to make it right You can't smell the roses when you're gone So live every moment Like it's the last night on earth As if it's the last night on earth 'Cause this is the last night on earth
