Appreciate
There's a man dying on the side of the roadWon't make it home tonightHe was driving fast on his cell phoneThat's how he lived his lifeWhile he was hanging by a threadThese were the final words he said
"My girl turns sweet sixteen todayShe's beautiful, so beautifulIt might get rough sometimesBut I hope she keeps her faith"(Hope she keeps her faith)
I wish I grabbed a chanceTo say to herLife is too shortSo take the time and appreciate
There's a women crying on the kitchen floorShe got a call tonightNow she's trembling outside her daughter's doorWalks in and holds her tightWondering how and where to startIs there a way to shield her heart?
My girl turns sweet sixteen todayShe's beautiful, so beautifulIt might get rough sometimesBut I hope she keeps her faith(Hope she keeps her faith)
I wish I grabbed a chanceTo say to herLife is too shortSo take the time and appreciate
Any but a loving wayGet hurt along the wayDon't be afraid to open upAnd use the time you haveBefore it fadesShow your love today
My girl turns sweet sixteen todayShe's beautiful, so beautifulIt might get rough sometimes(It might get rough sometimes)But I hope she keeps her faith(Hope she keeps her faith)
I wish I grabbed a chanceTo say to herLife is too shortSo take the time and appreciateLife is too shortSo take the time and appreciate
