I'm going to kiss the girls, make them cry Live too fast and still not die Before I get old, before I get old
I'm going to see you raised above this place Watch the moments shine upon your face Before I get old, before I get old
I'll watch the sun set over every sea From every city wall, every mountain peak Before I get old
The Northern Lights and the Southern Cross The harvests and the miles of dust And the blowing wind across the world
So wrap this coat around yourself And let's leave what's done behind There's so much left for us to do And yet there's so little time
I'm going to pull the fences to the ground Watch the twisted towers come crumbling down And start again
I want to be a hero and a villain and a father and a son Take care of my body and abuse it still Until everything goes numb
So let's make this dance and never fear There's any real reason why we're all here Live real fast, still not die before I get old Yeah, live real fast, still not die, never get old
