Memories, a summer breezeI'm on the bus almost getting homeOut on the street, Miami heatI miss the smell of my dad's cologneAnd it seems to me like a melodyMy favorite song on the radioWhen you knowTurn it back before it goesMy front door, the corner storeClimbin' the tree in my old backyardMy mother's smile from ear to earWhen I got all A's on my report cardI can see them all when I close my eyesIt doesn't seem that long agoWhen you knowYou turn it back before it goesTime is tickin' away, yeahBut it was just yesterday, yeahThough it'll never be gone, yeahWe gotta live for todayIce Cream from the Dairy QueenOn the corner by the Orange BowlMy grandma's voice always tellin' meI'd understand when I was oldYou can make mistakes, it'll be okBut when you learn it's a pot o' goldWhen you knowTo turn it back before it goesTime is tickin' away, yeahTime is tickin' awayBut it was just yesterday, yeahBut it was just yesterdayThough it'll never be gone, yeahNever be gone, never, never be goneWe gotta live for todayGot to live for todayEverything you live and you doBecomes a part of you, soYou'll get back what you spread aroundEverything you think and you sayIs gonna show up some waySo why not always take the higher groundTime is tickin' away, yeahEl tiempo pasa y no vuelve jamásSolo lo bueno quiero recordarBut it was just yesterday, yeahSolo este día es el hay que vivirHacia adelante yo voy a seguirThough it will never be gone, yeahSolo te enseña la vida es verdadY lo que buscas lo vas a encontrarWe've got to live for todayHay que vivir para hoyTime is tickin' away, yeahEl tiempo pasaBut it was just yesterday, yeahY no vuelve jamásThough it will never be gone, yeahSolo lo bueno, solo lo bueno quiero recordarWe've got to live for todayHay que vivir para hoyTime is tickin' awayY no vuelve jamásTime is tickin' awayBut it was just yesterday, yeah
