Carpe Diem
From everything to nothing
in the blinking of an eye
sometimes thats how it feels
and its that which makes me cry
From hope to desperate loss
really isn't all that far
you can get there in a single step
from no matter where you are
Our lives change in an instant
sometimes out of our control
which is why when you find happiness
you do your best to just keep hold
But sometimes we forget this
while we're waiting for a sign
and the thing we wanted most of all
ends up getting left behind
And thirty years from now
when we sit there feeling blue
The best that we can manage
is "Whatever happened to..."
