Pockets full of money that I saved and never spent A shoebox full of letters that I wrote and never sent Words of love and promises I thought but never said Hoping that I wouldn't fall behind Nights I wasted dreaming things that I forgot when I awoke Journeys I had plotted out, but I never found the road Running into strangers, never looking in their eyes All the magic that we might have shared if not for my disguise And still, I'm grateful to be alive, and waiting for the moment to arrive Seize the moment when it comes Seize the moment - it may be the only one Seize the moment - don't you let it pass you by You've gotta seize the moments of your life I tried to say I love you but I was paralyzed I wanted to find happiness but I lost it in your eyes I waited far too many years before I realized I have wasted all the best years of my life Just waiting for the moment to arrive Seize the moment when it comes Seize the moment - it may be the only one Seize the moment - don't you let it pass you by You've gotta seize the moments of your life Oh, what am I waiting for? There is really nothing more than this precious moment And all this love I have inside Now it's time to let it shine, so let it shine, let it shine Seize the moment when it comes Seize the moment - it may be the only one Seize the moment - don't you let it pass you by You've gotta seize the moments of your life
