I ran into an old friend
We shared some drinks and some old times gone by
Traded our war stories, moments of glory
When I saw the fear in his eyes
That's when he told me about the company set-backs
Budgets and cutbacks
Boy, you're on your own, mm, mm, mm
He said I'm wasting my life just paying my bills
Doing my time, but getting no chills
A living ain't living now without the thrill of doing
Something you love
Sing a song loud or hit a ball hard
Spend a night outside under the stars
Catch one falling, and you'll go far
Doing something you, something you love
I was saving for a weekend hoping that we might spend
A little time alone
Somewhere watching the sun drop
Yeah, that's when I popped the question, break out the stone
And she told me, I'll follow you wherever
And I'll never, ever leave you alone, mm, mm, mm
But I'm wasting my time just paying my bills
Staying in line, but catching no chills
A living ain't living now without the thrill
Of doing something you love (something you love)
Dance all night till the moonlights gone
Dive in the river with nothing on
Follow your dreams, you can't go wrong
Doing something you, something you love (doing, doing)
♪
And one day, when I look back, I don't wanna say that
I gave our time away (mm, mm)
Ain't gonna waste my life just paying my bills
Grabbing my keys climbing up that hill
A living ain't living not without the thrill of doing
Something you love
Sing a song loud or hit a ball hard
Spend a night outside under the stars
Catch one falling, and you'll go far
Doing something you, something you love
