Life In One Day Lyrics - Singles - Howard Jones

The old man said to me 

Said don't always take life so seriously 

Play the flute 

And dance and sing your song 

Try and enjoy the here and now 

The future will take care of itself somehow 

The grass is never greener over there 

Time will wear away the stone 

Gets the hereditary bone 

Chorus 

Don't try to live your life in one day 

Don't go speed your time away 

Don't try to live your life in one day 

Don't go speed your time away

HOT SONG: Miley Cyrus - 'Mother's Daughter' - LYRICS 

Prime Day concert by Amazon Music will be headlined by Taylor Swift 

The old man said to me 

Said you can't change the world single-handedly 

Raise a glass enjoy the scenery 

Pretend the water is champagne 

And fill my glass again and again 

While the wolves are gathering round your door 

Time will wear away the stone 

Gets the hereditary bone 

The old man said to me 

Said don't always take life so seriously 

Play the flute 

And dance and sing your song 

Try and enjoy the here and now 

The future will take care of itself somehow 

The grass is never greener over there 

Time will wear away the stone 

Gets the hereditary bone

I tried to live my life in one day 

Don't go speed your time away 

I bit off more than I can chew 

Only so much you can do 

Wolves are gathering round my door 

Ask them in and invite some more 

I tried to live my life in one day 

Don't go speed your time away
