Well, a quarter in a fountain means that people still have dreams And a token in a pocket means that people can come clean So come on now, boy, don't you be afraid to start 'Cause sweat on your skin's better than regret on your heart Well, the wrinkles on your face from regret-filled days Your eyes tell the story of a place far away And if you don't bleed now, you'll forever have to pay You're not livin' 'less you're willin' to do some dyin' along the way And if you can't see now, then you'll find out one day When your hands are gettin' weak and you're fadin' away Take these words here now and let 'em be your savin' grace Ain't no better time than today Take them hits on your sleeve and wear them proud You're the only one around you that truly knows how, oh Save them tears for a day where you'll need 'em Like the times when you come home, not the times when you're leavin' And if you can't see now, then you'll find out one day When your hands are gettin' weak and you're fadin' away Take these words here now and let 'em be your savin' grace Ain't no better time than today Well, if you can't see now, you'll find out one day When your hands are gettin' weak and you're fadin' away Take these words here now and let 'em be your savin' grace Ain't no better time than today
