Bilingual
I built my days from others' dreams
Wore smiles that never fit my seams
I chased applause forgot my song
Till silence whispered you've been gone too long
Now I see the roads I didn't take
The hearts I could've learned to break
All for the fear of letting go
Of being me not what they know
And oh if I could turn back years
I'd trade my pride for unspent tears
So dance while there's still time
Laugh before the clock unwinds
Tell the truth don't hide behind the pain (pain) (pain)
Hold your friends like sacred gold
Work can wait the heart grows old
Live the life your soul would die to claim (claim)
While there's still time
I built my worth in ticking clocks
Missed bedtime tales forgot the talks
The children grew I blinked they flew
Chasing a dream I thought was true
The office lights replaced the stars
Success was mine but peace was far
Now all that's left these trembling hands
Wish I had danced while I still can
If only I had paused to see
The world was waiting patiently
So dance (dance) while there's still time
Laugh before the clock unwinds
Tell the truth don't hide behind the pain (pain) (pain)
Hold your friends like sacred gold
Work can wait the heart grows old
Live the life your soul would die to claim (claim)
While there's still time
I bit my tongue I held my breath
Afraid of love afraid of death
But words unsaid they haunt the air
They echo loud I wish I'd dared
Say I love you when it burns
Forgive before regret returns
Don't let fear define your art
Speak the truth that heals your heart
The letters fade the numbers gone
I meant to call but time moved on
In the end it's not the things
It's voices lost that memory brings
So reach across the miles today
Don't wait until they fade away
Love is the wealth that never dies
It lives in hearts not in goodbyes
So dance while there's still time
Laugh before the clock unwinds
Joy's not found it's something you decide (decide)
Let go of chains (chains) that comfort brings
Fly unafraid on broken wings
You were born to feel the sunlight in your eyes (eyes)
While there's still time
And when the night draws near my friend
You'll find it's love that does not end
So live forgive and make it shine
While you're still here
(oooh)
While there's still time
While there's still time
