First, I was dying to grow up and finish school, Then, I was dying to finish college and get a job, Then, I was dying to get married and have kids, Then, I was dying for my kids to finish school, Then, I was dying to retire, Now, I am dying, And I realize, I forgot to live.

Dying
First, I was dying to grow up and finish school, Then, I was dying to finish college and get a job, Then, I was dying to get married and have kids, Then, I was dying for my kids to finish school, Then, I was dying to retire, Now, I am dying, And I realize, I forgot to live.
