In this world we say hello
Just as fast we say goodbye, we say goodbye
From the time we lift our head
Welcomed into life that races to the end

But we're here now
Brief and fleeting
Spinning round
Still we're breathing

Oh m-m-my my heart's still beating
Oh and how I feel it deep in my soul
Oh m-m-my my time is running low
What if I miss it all

Built to last but prone to fall
The finish line that meets us all, that meets us all
So much that is found between
The dates above our bodies only measuring

But we're here now
Brief and fleeting
Spinning round
Still we're breathing

Oh m-m-my my heart's still beating
Oh and how I feel it deep in my soul
Oh m-m-my my time is running low
What if I miss it all

If you blink it can pass you before you know
Don't let it slip past you

Oh m-m-my my heart's still beating
Oh and how I feel it deep in my soul
Oh m-m-my my time is running low
What if I miss it all
