While I Still Got The Time

Thirty-nine candles burn out on a cake
Each representing a million mistakes
The last one still burns, there's a wish I can make
This time I'm gettin' it rightSo I close my eyes and I take a deep breath
And I promise myself in the time I have leftI'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 watching
I'm gonna love while I still got the timeLovin' 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 manHe's sincere and sober and faithful and kind
And he's home when you need girl and startin' tonightI'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 watching
I'm gonna love while I still got the timeNo more excuses and no more me doin' things wrong
Life is too short baby, I've wasted ours for too long
And baby from now onI'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 watching
I'm gonna love while I still got the timeI'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 watching
I'm gonna love while I still got the time
I'm gonna love while I still got the timeWhile I still got the time, Lord, Lord
