One life isn't enough, we'd need at least ten
What do we do with a life if we start it at the end
A single life isn't enough, we'd need thousands
A single life isn't enough if we live it halfway
There'll be so many things to do and then to live
So much pain to erase to rebuild
We'll go discover forgotten flavors
See other moons and make other summers blush
There'll be so many romances, hopes by the fireside
So many fleeting, languid one-night pleasures
So much knowledge to voice to look bigger
So many silly things to do to stay kids
One life isn't enough, we'd need at least ten
What do we do with a life if we start it at the end
A single life isn't enough, we'd need thousands
A single life isn't enough if we live it halfway
There'll be so many other values to learn
So many words, words flung out to defend ourselves
So many poems to repeat in front of the mirror
So many notebooks to scribble in at the back of class
There'll be so many bursts of tears, and then of laughter
So much after your fate, ma'am, I'm going to run
So many love letters written to confide
So many walls to dust off to move ahead
One life isn't enough, we'd need at least ten
What do we do with a life if we start it at the end
A single life isn't enough, we'd need thousands
A single life isn't enough if we live it halfway
While there's still time, let's seize every moment
Let's live now, every glimmer of every spring
Let's wear our bodies out on segments all different
Let's surrender our hearts, even a few hours, to the rush of wind
One life isn't enough, we'd need at least ten
What do we do with a life if we start it at the end
A single life isn't enough, we'd need thousands
A single life isn't enough if we live it halfway
One life isn't enough, we'd need at least ten
What do we do with a life if we start it at the end
A single life isn't enough, we'd need thousands
A single life isn't enough if we live it halfway
