I'm 15... for a moment

Caught in between 10 and 20

And I'm just dreamin'

Countin' the ways to where you are

I'm 22... for a moment

And she feels better than ever

And we're on fire

Making our way back from Mars

15 there's still time for you

Time to buy and time to lose

15... There's never a wish

Better than this

When you've only got a hundred years to live

I'm 33... for a moment

Still the man, But you see I'm a they

A kid on the way, babe

A family on my mind

I'm 45... for a moment

The sea is high and I'm heading into a crisis

Chasing the years of my life

15 there's still time for you

Time to buy and time to lose yourself

Within a morning star

15... I'm all right with you

15... There's never a wish

Better than this

When you've only got a hundred years to live

Half time goes by

Suddenly you're wise

Another blink of an eye, 67 is gone

The sun is getting high

We're moving on

I'm 99...

for a moment

Dying for just another moment

And I'm just dreamin'

Countin' the ways to where you are

15... There's still time for you

22... I feel her too

33... You're on your way

Every day's a new day

15... There's still time for you

Time to buy and time to choose

15... There's never a wish

Better than this

When you've only got a hundred years to live.
