Dead & Gone

A perfect girl in a perfect house
Every knickknack resting in a perfect place
Strange man with a dirty brow
Says the world is ending, everyone's pretending

Not to see the boy with his mother now
He's a wildfire, she's a cool in autumn breeze
20 somethin' lovers walkin' down on midnight street
The moon above shimmers in this summer heat

All these faces every day
Move through life in their own way
Sometimes we need a break
To recharge, rejuvenate

Take a chance on me if you feel the same
Make move before we're dead and gone
Only 1440 seconds to wait
Before tomorrow comes

And if it's been a while since you made a change
You'd better move it along
Gotta make a choice to start a brand new day
Before we're dead and gone

Anxious man in his daily grind
Workin' day and night to pay for things he doesn't need
True heart in a trumped up world
Movin' faith in everyone who promised an elusive dream

Sometimes we need a break
To recharge, rejuvenate

Take a chance on me if you feel the same
Make move before we're dead and gone
Only 1440 seconds to wait
Before tomorrow comes

And if it's been a while since you made a change
You'd better move it along
Gotta make a choice to start a brand new day
Before we're dead and gone

If we only get one life to live
Then we'd better give it all we got
If we only get one life to live
Then we'd better give it all we got

Take a chance on me if you feel the same
Make move before we're dead and gone
Only 1440 seconds to wait
Before tomorrow comes

And if it's been a while since you made a change
You'd better move it along
Gotta make a choice to start a brand new day
Before we're dead and gone

Take a chance on me if you feel the same
(You feeling, feel the way I do) make move before we're dead and gone
Only 1440 seconds to wait
Before tomorrow comes (hey, hey)

And if it's been a while since you made a change (if it's been a while)
You'd better move it along (you'd better move it along)
Gotta make a choice to start a brand new day
Before we're dead and gone
