Phil Vassar - Don't Miss Your Life - Sözleri

On a plane to the West Coast, laptop on my tray

Papers spread across my seat, a big deadline to make

An older man sitting next to me said, "Sorry to intrude,

Thirty years ago my busy friend, I was you.

I made a ton of money and I climbed up the ladder,

Yeah, I was superman, not what does it matter.



I missed the first steps my daughter took

The time my son played Captain Hook in 'Peter PanI was in New York, said 'Sorry son, Dad has to workI missed the father daughter dance

The first home run, no second chance

To be there when he crossed the plate

The moment's gone now it's too late

Fame and fortune come with a heavy price

Son, don't miss your life."



Funny you should say that, I was sitting at the gate

My daughter called, she made straight A's and they're off to celebrate.

Scrolling through the pictures of my little family

My daughter with her mom and friends, not a single one with me.

They know I love 'em, I know they know I care








The truth is half the time, I'm not even there.



I missed our fourth and fifth anniversary

Our girl was early by a week

Her sister had to hold her hand

I was in L.A., she said "I understand"

I missed her first day of school

Then what kind of crazy fool

Lets such precious moments pass

We all know time goes way too fast

Hold on tight ‘cause it don't happen twice

Don't miss your life.



When I get off this plane, I'll buy a turn-around ticket

Saturday's her eighth birthday and I'm not gonna miss it



There'll be balloons and birthday cake

And I'll clean up the mess they make

My mom and dad are drivin' in

I haven't seen 'em in God knows when

My wife will probably say to me

"I thought you were supposed to be in Portland

For a few more days", I'll take her in my arms and say

"I heard some words that hit me hard last night,

A man said: 'Don't miss your life'."
