Remember the time when I posted (predicted) that Kris Allen will win American Idol? Read it here: Kris Allen will be the Next American Idol
And we all know my prediction was right. He just released his newest album and the first time I listened to one of the singles (Live Like We're Dying), I was convinced he deserved to win even if the rest would say otherwise.
The meaning this song tells the listeners is amazing! It tells or conveys the sense of urgency for all of us who don't have eternity for us to say and show "I Love You" every chance we got.
Here's the video and lyrics. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Kris Allen's Live Like We're Dying
Kris Allen - Live Like Were Dying Lyrics
Sometimes we fall down and cant get back up
Were hiding behind skin thats too tough
How come we dont say I love you enough
Till its too late, its not too late
Our hearts are hungry for a food that wont come
We could make a feast from these crumbs
And were all staring down the barrel of a gun
So if your life flashed before you, what would you wish you wouldve done
[Chorus]
Yeah, gotta start
Looking at the hand of the time weve been given here
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin it
Every second counts on a clock thats tickin
Gotta live like were dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
To turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell em that we love em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like were dying
And if you plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbyes
Should be so careful who we live out of our lives
So when we long for absolution, therell be no one on the line
(Chorus)
Like were dying (x4)
(Chorus)
You never know a good thing until its gone
you never see a crash until its head on
All these people right when were dead wrong,
You never know a good thing till its gone
(Chorus)
Like were dying (x4)
(Chorus)
Sometimes we fall down and cant get back up
Were hiding behind skin thats too tough
How come we dont say I love you enough
Till its too late, its not too late
Our hearts are hungry for a food that wont come
We could make a feast from these crumbs
And were all staring down the barrel of a gun
So if your life flashed before you, what would you wish you wouldve done
[Chorus]
Yeah, gotta start
Looking at the hand of the time weve been given here
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin it
Every second counts on a clock thats tickin
Gotta live like were dying
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
To turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell em that we love em while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like were dying
And if you plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbyes
Should be so careful who we live out of our lives
So when we long for absolution, therell be no one on the line
(Chorus)
Like were dying (x4)
(Chorus)
You never know a good thing until its gone
you never see a crash until its head on
All these people right when were dead wrong,
You never know a good thing till its gone
(Chorus)
Like were dying (x4)
(Chorus)
