Losing Life Lyrics

Eighty-five, seventeen
Young boy sitting with his grandpa
Talking on a porch swing
And he said, I better watch what I'm gonna do
Well boy I could teach you a thing or two about life
You gotta live in the moment, kid
Any moment can give you another life to live
And yeah that’s la la la la life
Simplified through my eyes, so I say

Time flies, people die
And babies cry and that's part of life
Friends go, wouldn't you know
We all get old and that’s part of life
So live your life, yeah

Back in the day I was a young boy too
Wouldn't believe it, I was just like you
And I stumbled around, yes I was so confused
You gotta listen I've been in your shoes
Man you don't know what I'm going through
Well boy I could teach you a thing or two about life
Troubles weren't meant to harm you, kid
Any trouble could give you another life to live
And yeah that’s la la la la life
Simplified through my eyes, so I say

Time flies, people die
And babies cry and that's part of life
Friends go, wouldn't you know
We all get old and that’s part of life
Yeah

Then he said
So what about me, and what does that mean
Oh my head is so down, is this part of life
Because I'm losing my life
My time flies...

And that’s part of life
