I was watching the game
And I saw my life go by real fast
I try to live for today
But, you know it doesn't last
I feel the whole world turning
While I'm just standing by
Take a breath of mountain air
From someone else's life
I can't stand on the sidelines
Look in the mirror and count the lines on my face
When you lie here beside me
Just a moment forever, then gone with a trace
Gone with a trace
In the moment it takes
Is the moment that we're in
I know a thousand lives
Can dance on the head of a pin
I feel the whole world turning
I'm just standing still
You can't change your life with someone else's will
And I won't stand on the sidelines
Look in the mirror and count the lines on my face
When you lie here beside me
Just a moment together, then gone with a trace
Gone with a trace
Sometimes an old wine can make your life feel new
So pour me a glass and I will drink it with you
I feel the whole room turning, and you're turning too
When you're in my life, it always feels so new
And I won't stand on the sidelines
Look in the mirror and count the lines on my face
When you lie here beside me
Just a moment forever, then gone with a trace
Gone with a trace
I was watching the game
And I saw my life go by real fast
