| Thirty-nine candles burnt out on a cake
|
| Each representin' a million mistakes
|
| The last one still burns, there’s a wish I can make
|
| This time I’m gettin' it right
|
| So I close my eyes and I take a deep breath
|
| And I promise myself in the time I have left
|
| I’m gonna work like I don’t need the money
|
| I’m gonna laugh like I’m not afraid to cry
|
| I’m gonna dance like nobody’s watchin'
|
| I’m gonna love while I still got the time
|
| Lovin' me hasn’t been easy on you
|
| I don’t know why, but I know you still do It may be my day, but here’s a present for you
|
| You’re lookin' at your new man
|
| He’s sincere and sober and faithful and kind
|
| And he’s home when you need him and girl startin' tonight
|
| I’m gonna work like I don’t need the money
|
| I’m gonna laugh like I’m not afraid to cry
|
| I’m gonna dance like nobody’s watchin'
|
| I’m gonna love while I still got the time
|
| No more excuses and no more me doing things wrong
|
| Life is too short, baby, I’ve wasted ours for too long
|
| And baby from now on
|
| I’m gonna work like I don’t need the money
|
| I’m gonna laugh like I’m not afraid to cry
|
| I’m gonna dance like nobody’s watchin'
|
| I’m gonna love while I still got the time
|
| I’m gonna work (gonna work like I don’t need the money) I know I am
|
| I’m gonna laugh (gonna laugh like I’m not afraid to cry) laugh, laugh, laugh
|
| I’m gonna dance (I'm gonna dance like nobody’s watchin') I’m gonna dance,
|
| I’m gonna dance
|
| I’m gonna love while I still got the time
|
| I’m gonna love while I still got the time
|
| While I still got the time |
