I'm changin' lanes and talkin' on the phone
I'm drivin' way too fast
And the interstate's jammed with gunners like me
Afraid of comin' in last
But somewhere in the race we run
We're comin' undone.
Days go by
I can feel them flyin'
Like a hand out the window in the wind
The cars go by
It's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
'Cause days go by.
Out on the roof just the other night
I watched the world flash by
Headlights, taillights and runnin' through a river
Of neon signs
But somewhere in the rush I felt
We're losin' ourselves.
And days go by
I can feel 'em flyin'
Like a hand out the window in the wind
The cars go by
Yeah, it's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
'Cause days go by.
Yeah, the days go by
We think about tomorrow, then it slips away
Oh yes it does
We talk about forever but we've only got today.
And the days go by
I can feel 'em flyin'
Like a hand out the window as the cars go by
It's all we've been given
So you'd better start livin'
You better start livin'
Better start livin' right now.
'Cause days go by
I can feel them flyin'
Like a hand out the window in the wind
The cars go by
Yeah, it's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
'Cause days go by.
Yeah these days go by
Oh, so take 'em by the hand
They're yours and mine
Take 'em by the hand
And live your life
Take 'em by the hand
Don't let 'em all fly by
Come on
Come on now
Come on
Don't you know the days go by...
