want to stand upon a rock, and watch the river flow
with the blue sky above me and the valley down below.
I want to hold my head up high, and listen to the wind
'Cause when it's gone, it won't be back again
I want to sing the kind of songs that my dad sang to me,
and try to be the man he hoped that I would be
He said you only get one chance, you'd better do the best you can,
'Cause when it's gone, it won't be back again.
I want to wear my Sunday coat, and hold your hand in mine,
and hear you say you'll love me until the end of time.
I want to find forever in every moment that we spend,
'Cause when it's gone, it won't be back again.
I want to wear my Sunday coat
and hold your hand in mine
and hear you say you'll love me
until the end of time
I want to stand upon a rock, like I did when I was young,
