lyrics

When I was young, my father told me
“son, if you love someone, you’ve gotta let them know”
When I grew up, and I had learned enough
I had lived and loved, and it goes to show

That there is a debt that we all must pay
But I’m not buying in today
I wanna live, I wanna love
I’m not content with ‘just enough’

White picket fence, a garden and two kids
Just like The Joneses, it’s a living nightmare
I’ll take my strings over anything
Add a diamond ring, to keep the Mrs. happy

And there is a debt that we all must pay
But I’m not buying in today
I wanna live, I wanna love
I’m not content with ‘just enough’

I knew a man too proud to stay
With his family
So he replaced his wife and kids
With overtime and contract bids

And when they grew up, they couldn’t fend
Or make amends, no competence
And it’s plain to see, that your family
Is all you need, it’s all you need

It doesn’t matter what it says on your tombstone
When it’s too late, you’ll be soaking with regret
It doesn’t matter what it says on your tombstone
No, just as long as you made the best of it

It doesn’t matter (when I was young)
It doesn’t matter (when I was young)
It doesn’t matter (when I was young)
It doesn’t matter (when I was young)
It doesn’t matter
