5. One Day Too Late (3:40)
Tick tock, hear the clock countdown
Wish the minute hand could be rewound
So much to do and so much I need to say
Will tomorrow be too late?

Feel the moment slip into the past
Like sand through an hourglass
In the madness I guess I just forget
To do all the things I said

Time passes by
Never thought I'd wind up
One step behind
Now I've made my mind up

Today I'm going to try a little harder
Going to make every minute last longer
Going to learn to forgive and forget
Because we don't have long, going to make the most of it

(Today)Today I'm going to love my enemies (today)
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
Because tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late
One day too late

Tick tock, hear my life pass by
I can't erase and I can't rewind
Of all the things I regret the most I do
Wish I'd spent more time with you

Here's my chance for a new beginning
I saved the best for a better ending
And in the end I'll make it up to you, you'll see
You'll get the very best of me

Time passes by
Never thought I'd wind up
One step behind
Now I've made my mind up

Today I'm going to try a little harder
Going to make every minute last longer
Going to learn to forgive and forget
Because we don't have long, going to make the most of it

(Today)Today I'm going to love my enemies (today)
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
Because tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late
One day too late

Your time is running out
You're never going to get it back
So make the most of every moment
Stop saving the best for last
(Today) Today I'm going to try a little harder (Today)
Going to make every minute last longer
Going to learn to forgive and forget
Because we don't have long, going to make the most of it

(Today)Today I'm going to love my enemies (today)
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
Because tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late
One day too late

One day too late
One day too late
One day too late
One day too late
